It retains its' original mercury glass mirror, where a desirable loss of silver lends an authentic timeworn patina. The frame with its gracefully carved leaf, scroll, and flower motifs are all representative of the softer, feminine style of the Regence period. The frame feature a harmonious blend of painted colors, with raised areas being accentuated by a lightly gilded finish.

The name Parclose comes from the arrangement of separate pieces of glass which surround the perimeter of the central mercury looking glass. The term 'parclose" or "parcloses" refers to the delicate molding which joins the inner and outer frames of the mirror.

Petite in stature at 27"h by 15.4"w, we think that this antique French mirror would make an elegant and charming addition to almost any room, from a focal point in an entry or over a mantle, to a statement-making addition in a powder room. less
