French Belle Epoque Giltwood Overmantel Mirror

fourth quarter 19th century, in the neoclassical taste, the arched crest decorated with ribbon-bound tendrils of laurel leaves, forming a central wreath, the sides with firepot finials, the cornice decorated with carved honeysuckle, the sides with flowers and acanthus leaves alternating with panels, set with a beveled mirror plate.
h. 68-3/4", w. 43-3/4"

In very good condition. Minor nicks to the gilding along the very lower edge of the frame. No sign of losses. The surface appears to have scattered touch up to the gilding. The mirror plate has some cloudiness and light disintegration to the silvering mostly to the upper 1/3 of the glass. It appears to retain the original mirror plate.
