A large Rococo style wall mirror from Italy, made in the 20th century. The shaped mirror glass sits in a carved wooden frame with a warm gold-coloured finish, following a lively curved outline with rounded corners and an undulating top and bottom, in the playful spirit of 18th-century Rococo.
At the top the frame is crowned by a large carved shell flanked by acanthus scrolls, and a smaller scrolled cartouche decorates the bottom rail. The inner edge of the frame is moulded, and the curls and leaves of the carving catch the light beautifully, giving the mirror a festive and luxurious look.
Its wide, horizontal format makes it ideal to hang above furniture, where it reflects the light and visually enlarges a room. The gold-coloured finish has a soft, slightly aged tone that goes well with both warm wood and painted surfaces.
A generous statement mirror above a sofa, a sideboard, a console or a fireplace, in a living room, dining room or entrance hall. It brings light and classic Italian elegance into any interior, from a stately home to a modern apartment.
Condition: small dark spots and some wear in the gold-coloured finish, consistent with age and use.
