Louis philippe mirrors, with their clean lines and versatile shape, are a popular choice in traditional or contemporary home settings. The mirror has its original mirror plate and wooden back cladding. The original gilt finish of the frame is nicely worn, giving it great character. The two small legs are probably added on request of the original owner of the mirror. It is not something we often encounter with antique louis philippe mirrors. The mirror frame is structurally healthy and the glass is still in a very good condition. The glass has a few minor foxed spots - part of its charm - but no mist or cloudiness. Expected minor imperfections in the frame, indicative of its age and usage, contribute to its overall charm without diminishing its appeal.
