Rare Louis XVI Haussmannian Mirror - Mercury Glass 175 x 120 cm

An exceptional piece for lovers of authenticity. I offer this sumptuous Louis XVI style mirror (late 19th century), with generous and rare dimensions (175 cm in height and 120 cm in width). Coming directly from a Haussmannian apartment in the 9th arrondissement of Paris, it possesses all the charm and prestige of the old. Its main assets: • Original mercury glass: An unmatched depth of reflection that is no longer found in modern mirrors. It attests to its precious and collectible character. • Richly carved pediment: A remarkable woodworking job featuring floral motifs, scrolls, and a central shell typical of the Louis XVI repertoire. • Original white patina: Its off-white/cream patina finish allows it to integrate elegantly into both classic and very contemporary interiors. Condition and authenticity: The mirror is in very good overall condition. Note: a fine scratch on the glass, a reminder of its history and successive moves. Far from being a defect, this mark is the true certificate of authenticity of a mercury glass that has never been replaced. Usage: With its exceptional dimensions, it is ideal placed on the floor or on a wide fireplace to bring incredible brightness and a majestic perspective to your room. • Delivery: I can assist you in organising transport via a specialised professional (estimated cost between €130 and €150 depending on the destination). • Collection: Personal handover possible in Saint-Cyr-l’École (78).
