Large Antique Early French Louis Philippe Gilt Wood Wall Mirror Crest Frame

Description: A large and striking example of a timeless classic, this elegant antique Louis Philippe wall mirror features a trapezoidal shape with rounded corners, characteristic of the Louis Philippe style. The frame is adorned with intricate floral detailing throughout, finished in a warm gold tone that adds a touch of opulence. It is hand embellished and carefully crafted. The top of the frame is adorned with a sprawling ornate crest. The edges of beveled mirror act as prisms which refract the light, providing any room with additional depth and an exquisite look. Measures 37” high x 28 3/4” wide x 3 1/2” thick. Weight: 22 lb. Excellent antique condition with minor wear consistent with age, but does have two areas of losses to frame ornamentation, as shown at pictures. The beveled mirror itself is in excellent condition. The style of architecture and design under King Louis Philippe I (1830–1848) was a more eclectic development of French neoclassicism, incorporating elements of neo-Gothic and other styles. It was the first French decorative style imposed not by royalty, but by the tastes of the growing French upper class. At that time, France had a golden age, as the home of Frédéric Chopin, Franz Liszt, Victor Hugo, Honoré de Balzac, and other major poets and artists. The mirror's refined design makes it a versatile piece, which meshes well with just about any interior design style, perfect for enhancing both traditional and contemporary interiors. A timeless addition to any room, this mirror exudes French elegance with a touch of luxury.
