This mirror is a tour de force of carving, the frame has three levels which in turn has different styles of carving depending on the placement. You have grape vines inside the boarder and then pears and pineapples on the outside, all carved in oak then plaster coated and gilt as was the method and fashion of the day
The frame has normal age related patina marks as you would expect, it has some losses here and there, all consummate with genuine use and honest age
Dimensions:
Height 66.5cm
Width 48cm
