Napoleon III mirror in gutta-percha

Napoleon III period mirror featuring a richly carved gutta-percha frame with a beaded frieze, scrolls, cherubs, and a mask, along with an oval mercury mirror. On the back, a ring and a metal support allow for wall hanging or tabletop display. In generally good condition, this mirror shows no missing parts. We note small signs of age on the frame and some oxidation on the mercury mirror and the metal back support, which contribute to its authentic patina. Ideal above a fireplace, in a collage of frames, or any other location of your choice, this mirror will add an antique touch to your decor.
