The expansive, wide horizontal mirror glass is anchored by magnificent, architectural double-scroll "S-scroll" corbel side supports, which seamlessly bridge the flat lower base molding to the long, narrow display shelf running across the top. Each boldly sculpted bracket proudly exhibits a vibrant, heavy wood grain pattern, terminating at both the upper sweeping curl and the tightly rolled lower scroll in elegant, darkly stained incised spirals that create a striking visual contrast. Outfitted along the back edge with four sturdy, triangular metal mounting brackets, this exceptional late 19th to early 20th-century piece serves as a dramatic, high-impact statement over a fireplace mantel, buffet, or entryway console.
