Large 19th C Louis Philippe Mirror with Wavy Frame

Sale price€3.880,00

Elegant large scale antique French 19th Century Louis Philippe style gold gilt mirror with a 'wavy' or 'pie crust' edge frame and its inner rim edged with a classic 'string of pearls' motif.

This beautiful antique French gold gilt mirror has the typical rounded upper corners that make it a Louis Philippe mirror. Louis Philippe mirrors, with their clean lines and versatile shape, are a popular choice in traditional or contemporary home settings.

The mirror has its original mirror plate and wooden back cladding. The original gilt finish of the frame is nicely worn, giving it great character. The gold leaf gilding shows some slight red bole through the gilding, giving the gold color a warm touch.

The mirror frame is structurally healthy and the glass is still in a very good condition. It has a few small foxed spots – part of its charm – but no mist. (See detail pictures of the glass).

There are some minor imperfections to the frame, as would be expected with a piece of this age and usage, but this does not in any way detract from its charm.
