Elevate your space with this stunning late‑19th‑century–style wall mirror featuring a hand‑carved wood frame with elegant silver‑leaf gilt overlay and rich patina. The oversized beveled glass reflects light beautifully across its generous 43" × 34.5" surface. Design details include:
-
Intricate foliate and scroll carving in Louis‑Philippe/Louis‑XVI revival style
-
Authentic silver‑leaf gilt finish with natural age wear, lending timeless character
-
Beveled mirror glass suitable for entryways, living rooms, or mantle display

Condition:
This piece is in good antique condition with charming signs of age. There are small chips along the outer edges of the frame where the wooden base peeks through the silver leaf, adding texture and authenticity. The mirror itself has a few minor surface scratches, consistent with age, that do not detract from its overall clarity or impact.
Provenance & Care Advice:
Crafted in the style of fine French looking-glasses from the 1800s, this mirror offers enduring style. To preserve the silver leaf, avoid harsh polishes—use soft brushes and dust lightly. Ideal for a curated French‑inspired collection or elegant interior staging.
Style Note:
Pair with oil portraits, velvet upholstery, or rich paneling for a collected, heirloom aesthetic. Its scale and detail lend a grounded elegance to both traditional and eclectic interiors.
