The inset gilt metal panel features a central circular mirror framed by an elegant laurel leaf motif. The mirror itself holds a charmingly aged, foxed plate, flanked by scrolling foliage. The upper section showcases a central plume of feathers, supported by seated putti, while the lower section mirrors this design with a central urn, also supported by seated putti. Twin serpentine sconce arms terminate in acanthus leaf candle holders. The outer giltwood frame is adorned with beveled mirror slips. This rare and beautiful mirror will make a fabulous centrepiece in your home, and we have a pair available. Each mirror is unique, with different faces on the putti and removable handmade sconces. They may have been electrified at some point, as there is an old wire terminal on the back of one sconce. less
