in the rocaille style, it is distinguished by a lavish decoration of floral scrolls, foliage, and finely sculpted volutes, characteristic of the second empire style, which revisited baroque and louis xv styles. The richly crafted central pediment adds theatrical movement and a strong decorative presence.

the original mercury glass reflects with unique vibrancy and depth. The paneled wooden back attests to its authenticity.
