Large 19th Century Victorian Gilt Overmantle Mirror
Fine quality Victorian gilt overmantle wall mirror with real charm and aged elegance. This one is a good height of 127cm so would not only fit well into a period home but also more modern surroundings.
It survives in fine original condition with little loss to the frame and a lovely sparkle to the mirror and is proportionally good. The gilt work and moulding is aging incredibly well with a pleasing faded colour and no over-painting. Very attractive raised flowers to the top edges and lower sides.
Workshop report - As mentioned the frame is aging well with no over-painting, one small run of around 4cm to the beading on the left lower side is missing but not a killer and the flowers and foliage are all intact. The original mirror is lightly foxed and sparkles as old mirror glass should. Overall a lovely mirror that’s aging well. The pine frame back is also stable and firm.
A rather beautiful gilt Victorian mirror C1870.
Dimensions - Overall: Height 127cm x Width 96.5cm x Depth 7cm
