An elegant 1940-50s wall mirror by Hill & Randolph featuring Rococo-Revival scrollwork with acanthus leaves and oak-leaf sprigs accented by acorns. The carved maple frame is hand-finished in burnished gold leaf with contrasting black lacquer trim, creating dramatic depth and refined character. The crest’s pierced cartouche and sweeping curves evoke the grace of 18th-century French design. Perfect above a console, mantel, or dressing area, this statement mirror will bring luminous warmth and architectural presence to any room in your home.
JUNE'S THOUGHTS
I’ll admit — when I first ran my hand along the edge of this mirror, I expected the usual mid-century molded trim. Instead, I felt real wood beneath my fingertips, shaped by human hands. In that small moment, it stopped feeling like décor and became a piece of history, and I felt a quiet connection to the artisan carver who brought this frame to life nearly 80 years ago.
COLLECTOR'S NOTE
Hill & Randolph produced some of the finest carved mirrors of the mid-century decorator era, blending European elegance with American craftsmanship. Their giltwood pieces were prized for their dimensional carving and layered finishes—qualities that continue to distinguish them from later reproductions.
