Handsomely made out of composite materials and in a shape emulating the neoclassical frames of the English Regency and French Empire looking glasses, this mirror is destined to make a strong impression.
We believe it was made on the Continent, Originally, the mirror featured a very basic, unispired simulated wood finish, but we liked the shape, the detailing and the impressive size. We decided it desrved updating, so we lovingly painted it in Annie Sloane Duck Egg Blue, a wonderful blue-green quietly wispering echos of Gustavian and Empire French faded loveliness. We applied coat after coat to give a sense of a piece that has been painted many times. The twisted ribbon moulding spiralling around the frame has been gently highlighted with white wax, for a subtlely aged effect. The result is a matt finish softened by white streaks. The quality glass is bevelled and in good vibtage condition.
The mirror is ready to hang with a chain at the back. We can also add some brackets if you want to fix the mirror to the wall more securely.
Dimensions:
90ccm x 55cm x 4cm
The mirror was originally oriented with the longer edge horizontally, perhaps for a fire-place. It looks equally stunning stood on its narrowr end. as shown in our pictures.
