19th C Distressed Louis Philippe Mirror with Crest
Antique French Louis Philippe Mirror with Distressed Mirror Plate, Circa 1880
This lovely antique French mirror dates back to circa 1880 and embodies the timeless elegance of the Louis Philippe style. Featuring its signature rounded upper corners and a beautifully detailed crest, this mirror is a wonderful statement piece.
The distressed mirror plate has developed a beautiful foxed patina, giving it a unique aged character while still allowing for reflection. The gold gilt frame remains in a healthy structural condition, showcasing subtle age-related wear that adds to its authentic charm. A "string of pearls" motif adorns the inner rim, enhancing its refined look. The gold leaf gilding reveals hints of red bole beneath, adding a beautifully warm depth to the gold tone.
With its original mirror plate and back cladding intact, this French antique mirror is a rare find. Its distinctive character and historic charm make it the perfect decorative element for any classic or eclectic interior.
