The antique mirror features a dainty carved and gilt Chinoiserie-inspired foliate appliqué in the top panel of draped swags over a parasol. The blossoms and leaves are meticulously brought to life in varying depths for tactile contrast against the smooth aqua paint that infuses the back panel. Small, gilded rosettes punctuate the corners. Below, gilt molding defines the proportions of the original mirror plate which is veiled by a thin layer of foxing across the surface and several patches of dark oxidation/loss to the foil.
