Gesso Ornate Gilt Wooden Wall Mirror
The origins of the gilt wooden ornate gesso wall mirror trace back to the opulent baroque and rococo periods of the 17th and 18th centuries in Europe, particularly in France and Italy. Gesso, a plaster-like material, was meticulously applied to wooden frames to create intricate designs. These frames were then gilded with gold leaf, giving them a luxurious appearance. During the reign of Louis XVI, this style evolved to incorporate neoclassical elements, emphasizing symmetry and classical motifs. These mirrors became symbols of wealth and refinement, adorning the walls of palaces and affluent homes, and continue to be cherished for their historical significance and exquisite craftsmanship.
