The sculptural frame combines neoclassical elegance with Hollywood Regency glamour, surrounding a crisp chrome-toned mirrored glass that beautifully reflects light.

The exact base metal beneath the gilded surface is unknown; however, it is non-magnetic, indicating it is not iron. The piece has substantial weight and excellent definition, suggesting quality casting typical of higher-end decorative metalwork of the period.

Attributed to the Gardner aesthetic and dated circa 1974, this mirror strongly evokes the refined, theatrical style of Maison Jansen, with its bold use of mythic animal forms and luxurious metallic finish.

Measurements listed are the largest overall dimensions of the piece.

Perfect as a focal point in an entryway, over a console, or as a dramatic wall accent in a Regency, Neoclassical, or eclectic interior. A true knockout statement piece for collectors and designers alike. See less
