19th Century French Louis XVI Style Painted and Parcel Gilt Neoclassical Trumeau Mirror
A 19th century French Louis XVI style painted and and parcel gilt trumeau mirror, circa 1870s. The greenish-gray patinated frame, adorned with neoclassical relief carvings, speaks to the attention to detail and craftsmanship of the era. The inclusion of a finely carved giltwood Grecian style urn, along with floral and foliate motifs such as laurel swags and olive leaves, further enhances its classical aesthetic. The original mirror plate is framed by carved and gilt trim featuring twisted ribbon and beaded pearl motifs. The addition of floral guilloché molding at the bottom adds a delicate touch to the overall design. The presence of red oxidation peeking through the water gilded patina not only adds depth to the piece but also serves as a testament to its age and history. This, coupled with the unique appearance of the original antique mirror glass, imbues the trumeau mirror with a sense of charm and character that simply cannot be replicated with new materials. This beautiful antique French mirror embodies the elegance and sophistication characteristic of the period and stands as a testament to craftsmanship of Louis XVI style, making it a timeless and cherished piece for any interior space.
