This exceptionally carved Baroque period Italian mirrored mercury glass giltwood wall hanging / mantel mirror captures the reason why we love European antiques so much. Nothing adds character to a piece like the time-worn, natural patina that only time can bring.
Born in Italy in the 18th century, richly ornamented with hand carved and sculpted ornate acanthus reliefs, intricate foliate ornamentation, undulating scalloped pie-crust trim, bordering the solid gilt wood frame. Some areas of wear and finish loss add warm, rustic charm.
Over the last approximately 300 years, the original mirrored mercury glass plate has developed a fascinating beautifully aged distressed patina, with scattered dark age spots, oxidation and various patinated imperfections, that does not detect from the display, but only adds to the aesthetic appeal and overall authenticity of this remarkable mirror.
