Napoleon III "rocaille" mercury mirror

Mercury mirror from the Napoleon III period (circa 1860-1880), made of wood and gilded stucco, adorned with an elegant pediment. In Rocaille style, it is distinguished by a lush decoration of floral scrolls, foliage, and finely sculpted volutes, characteristic of the Second Empire style, which revisits Baroque and Louis XV codes. The richly worked central pediment brings theatrical movement and a strong decorative presence. The original mercury glass reflects with a unique vibration and depth. The paneled back of wooden planks attests to its authenticity. A refined and decorative mirror, emblematic of the 19th century, ideal for enhancing a classic interior or creating an elegant contrast in a contemporary setting.
