English, 18th century.
This exceptional 18th-century Queen Anne mirror is a testament to the refined elegance and sophistication of the period. Crafted from giltwood and featuring original double-paned beveled glass, the mirror showcases the delicate artistry and craftsmanship characteristic of the Queen Anne style. The giltwood frame is intricately carved, adorned with restrained yet elegant motifs that were hallmarks of the period, such as scalloped and foliate details, all gilded with a lustrous, aged finish that enhances its regal appearance.
The double-paned beveled glass, rare for its time, was likely produced by a skilled artisan, as such mirrors required advanced techniques in glass cutting and mounting. This piece comes with documented provenance, tracing its origins back to a notable collection, lending further historical value and authenticity. Preserved with remarkable care, this Queen Anne mirror offers a glimpse into 18th-century aristocratic interiors, combining opulence and understated elegance—a true collector’s treasure that bridges historical craftsmanship with timeless appeal.
