Item Details
Description
This majestic wooden mantel mirror is a splendid example of late 19th-century Victorian design. At 45 inches tall and 46 1/2 inches wide, with a sturdy base depth of 6 inches, it commands attention with its grandeur and meticulous craftsmanship. The mirror is encased in a richly detailed wooden frame, which exhibits the ornate aesthetic characteristic of the period.The frame features intricate carvings, including fluted columns on either side that add a classical architectural element. These columns are capped with Corinthian-style motifs, while the upper and lower portions of the frame boast a series of parallel grooves and bead mouldings, lending texture and depth to the structure. The centerpiece of the frame is the mirror itself, which is sizeable and practical, yet elegantly adorned with a beveled edge, adding a touch of refinement to its reflective surface.The dark, warm-toned finish of the wood enhances the depth of the carvings and gives the mirror an air of historical weight and dignity. The craftsmanship suggests that it may have been a bespoke piece for a home of distinction. The mirror is supported by a substantial base, which not only provides stability but also adds to the mirror's decorative appeal with additional carved details.Given its dimensions and the quality of workmanship, this mirror would have likely been a focal point in a Victorian parlor or entryway, reflecting the opulence and attention to detail prized during the era. Currently, this piece maintains its beauty and function, ready to grace modern homes with its timeless elegance and serve as a stunning nod to the past. It is in good condition, with the patina of age that adds authenticity and charm to this antique piece.
