Large rectangular mirror 153 X 122 with gilded frame nineteenth Louis XVI style

Very large rectangular mirror of the nineteenth century louis XVI style, or even napoleon iii, originally certainly a fireplace mirror but that could now also be installed. It is illustrated in particular pretty decorations, in flowered frieze all around the frame. We perceive the beautiful glittery effect on its edges, as a signature of the gold leaf that once covered it, but which has gently given way to an elegant mixture of pink undercoat and soothed gilding. The effect is delicate. The mercury ice (of which the tain says its authenticity of itself) is stitched in places for a largely ancient vision. History lovers will see a beautiful trace of a glorious era. Here is a very large mirror that offers the opportunity to be presented in rather "portrait" format or in rather "landscape" format. In verticality, it would return a complete picture of the person who would focus on it. You can indeed choose to put it on the ground, as is now practiced, its advantage lies in a proportion that far exceeds the usual standards. Beautifully made, this mirror is in a remarkable state of conservation, and we have refreshed it. It has no pediment, which would weigh down a figure that does not need one. Quite light in ornamentation, it brings a real presence to the place where it will be positioned... Place that of course requires a certain amplitude to accommodate this xxl mirror. The back is fully paneled in excellent condition; .
