Pair of Opposing Carved Giltwood Mirrors

20th century, in the Chippendale taste, the asymmetrical rococo mirrors carved with scrollwork surrounds and accented with pierced flowerheads and rocaille work, the primary mirror panels decorated with impish figures seated on rocky outcroppings, the crests with carved ho-ho birds.
h. 76-1/2", w. 33"

Provenance: Private collection, Galveston, Texas.

**One mirror has a small loss to the branch carving along the right edge. Also, an entire branch is missing at the left side below the bird's tail. Both mirrors have some minor shrinkage cracks and a few old glued repairs. The gilt surfaces are fine. Minor cloudiness to the mirror plates. They appear to be second half 20th century.
