Antique Black Lacquer Japanned Wall Mirror for your consideration. The mirror measures approx. 13 3/4 inches X 17 3/4 inches and approx. 3/4 of an inch deep. Anglo-American, 19th Century. Late Victorian, Aesthetic Movement/Queen Anne revival style. Black lacquer with hand painted oil floral sprays. Vibrant red and orange roses, delicate pansies, and soft botanical greens decorate the scalloped perimeter panels, framed by intricate gold-gilt geometric stenciling and elegant corner leaf motifs.
Original rough-sawn solid wood backboard secured with early cut nails and surrounded by aged, brittle backing paper. This is an authentic antique item over 130 years old and is sold in its original, unrestored condition, showing a beautiful historic patina. The original glass mirrored plate exhibits wonderful silvering degradation, featuring characteristic dark spotting, foxing, and minor flaking along the upper edges that collectors highly prize. The paint remains stable with distinct, raised brushwork. The lacquer shows a delicate, natural "alligatoring" and fine crackle finish from age. The frame joints are stable and secure, with a minor, tight age separation visible at the mitered corners. The framed mirror is outfitted with 20th-century hanging wire and screw eyes, ready for display.
A truly soulful accent piece that brings historic warmth, texture, and artistic craftsmanship to any gallery wall or entryway.
