This elegant large 19th-century Louis Philippe mirror features a classic gilded wood frame with the style's signature rounded upper corners with a flat base. It is adorned with elegant ribbed detailing along both the inner and outer edges that add texture and a sense of movement to the surface. The gilding has developed a warm, aged patina, while small cracks in the upper section enhance its antique character. The overall design reflects the restrained neoclassical elegance typical of the Louis Philippe period, offering timeless sophistication with a gently worn, historical charm. The original mercury glass offers a gently aged reflection that enhances its antique charm.

Perfect for placing above a mantel, in an entryway, or behind a console, this mirror adds depth and light to any space. Its versatile design pairs effortlessly with both modern and traditional interiors, offering a touch of historic elegance with a quiet, sophisticated presence. 


Condition and patina consistent with age.
This mirror contains its original mercury glass which sparkles beautifully in the light. The technique of making mercury glass mirrors was retired in the early 1900s. The mercury is fixed behind the glass in a solidified, non harmful state.
Note: Mirrors have been photographed facing fabric, a technique that reveals any age spots in the glass. In some cases, this may create the appearance of an empty frame, but each mirror is complete except where explicitly stated.
