This 18th 18th-century Heavily Foxed Mercury Neoclassical Mirror is an evocative and richly aged piece with commanding proportions that will elevate virtually any space and decor.
Heavily foxed surface - a result of centuries of oxidation
Original mercury-backed glass
Framed in beautifully aged, hand-carved giltwood
Patches of silver blooming on mirrored surface
Classical molding accentuated by delicate beading
Back of mirror reveals untouched 18th0century joinery and exposed hand-forged nails, along with ancient wood
This mirror is a rare and evocative period piece with visible age wear throughout, offered in as-found, unrestored condition. The surface wear, foxing, and frame distress are not considered flaws but rather authentic expressions of its 18th-century origin and are integral to its aesthetic and value.
