An exceptional Louis XVI style trumeau mirror, richly decorated with hand-carved giltwood ornamentation and finished in a beautifully distressed painted frame. At its centre is a striking oval panel depicting a classical figure and cherub on a glowing gold leaf background, framed by finely carved oak leaves, acorns and ribbon-tied garlands.
The original mirror plates have developed the soft foxing and character that collectors love, giving the mirror warmth, depth and an unmistakable sense of age. Its generous proportions make it equally at home above a mantelpiece, behind a console or as a dramatic statement in an entrance hall.
Sourced in Belgium, this is a wonderfully decorative piece that captures the elegance of the Louis XVI revival. The combination of painted timber, giltwood carving, hand-decorated artwork and aged mirror glass creates a mirror that is both architectural and highly decorative.
A rare and impressive statement piece that brings light, scale and timeless European elegance to any interior.
