The sculptural form and integrated shelf are classic hallmarks of mid-century Italian and Florentine craftsmanship, frequently associated with refined Hollywood Regency interiors.

The solid wood frame is richly detailed with applied gesso and stucco gilding, giving the piece depth, texture, and visual weight. The built-in shelf offers a practical yet decorative surface for small objects or candles, which reflect beautifully in the mirror when displayed.

The mirror glass is clear and in excellent condition. The gilt finish shows authentic age-appropriate patina, including subtle areas of verdigris toning consistent with mid-20th-century gilt frames. A small, stabilized repair to the gesso at the upper left rear blends well and does not impact structural integrity or display.

A striking and versatile decorative mirror, ideal for an entryway, powder room, or above a console.
