This magnificent pair of Louis XVI giltwood looking glass mirrors, originating from France in the 18th century, exemplifies the opulence and refinement of the Louis XVI period. Each mirror features an intricately carved giltwood frame adorned with classical motifs such as laurel wreaths, floral garlands, and ribbon bows, characteristic of the neoclassical aesthetic favored during King Louis XVI's reign. The mirrors themselves are of high quality, with a beautifully aged patina that adds to their historical charm.

The Louis XVI period, spanning from 1774 to 1792, was marked by a return to classical simplicity and elegance, influenced by the archaeological discoveries of the time. Furniture and decorative arts from this era are celebrated for their graceful lines, symmetrical designs, and exquisite craftsmanship. These mirrors are not only functional but also serve as a testament to the artistry and cultural values of 18th-century France. less
