Dating back to the 1860s, the Louis Philippe giltwood stucco mirror is a stunning testament to 19th-century craftsmanship. Its frame, adorned with a delicate etched leaf and vine design, exudes timeless elegance. The inner beaded edge and intricate detailing add to its allure, showcasing the meticulous work of artisans of the era. While the mirror bears the marks of age with some small foggy spots, its vintage charm remains intact. Measuring at 5.0" depth x 29.0" length x 54.5" height (12.7 cm x 73.66 cm x 138.43 cm), this majestic piece commands attention and serves as a captivating focal point in any space, preserving the beauty of bygone eras.
The 19th Century Louis Philippe Gilt Golden and Carved Wood Mirror epitomizes the elegance and refinement of its era. Originating in France during the reign of King Louis Philippe I, which spanned from 1830 to 1848, this style of mirror reflects the transitional period between the opulent ornamentation of the Rococo and Neoclassical eras and the more restrained aesthetic of the later 19th century.
Crafted from luxurious gilt golden and carved wood, these mirrors were favored for their exquisite detailing and regal appearance. The Louis Philippe style emerged as a reaction to the lavishness of previous periods, emphasizing simpler, more understated designs that nonetheless exuded sophistication and taste.
During the 19th century, these mirrors adorned the halls and parlors of Europe's elite, serving as both functional objects and ornamental statements of wealth and status. Today, they continue to captivate collectors and enthusiasts, offering a glimpse into the refined tastes of a bygone era.
