The mirror features a softly arched rectangular form, architectural neoclassical geometry, framed in carved giltwood with finely reeded molding and a beaded inner slip. The original mercury glass retains pleasing age-related foxing and light silvering variation, giving the surface warmth and authenticity while remaining highly reflective. The giltwood frame displays a rich, mellow patina with gentle wear at the edges, consistent with age and careful use, and enhancing its understated classical character. Solidly constructed with its original wood back and hanging hardware, this antique mirror is versatile in scale and proportion, making it ideal for a powder room, entry, bedroom, or layered above a commode or console in both traditional and transitional interiors.
