Antique French Mirror in Gilded Wood with Cherubs

This antique mirror, made of gilded wood and plaster, dating from the late 19th century, is a remarkable example of craftsmanship from the period. It features an intricate and impressive pediment with a large mercury glass mirror surrounded by four smaller mirrors. The latter show slight oxidation, creating subtle spots that add a touch of charm and nostalgia to the piece.
At the top, winged cherubs bring an angelic and delicate touch, surrounded by scrolls, which enhance the elegance and richness of the design. The aged gilding, due to the passage of time, gives the mirror a unique character and a sumptuous patina, making it a piece full of refinement and charm. Such a mirror perfectly embodies the style and opulence of the late 19th century, while offering a touch of nostalgia and timeless beauty.
