Gesso Ornate Gilt Wooden Wall Mirror
Gesso ornate gilt wooden wall mirrors have their origins in the lavish artistic traditions of the Renaissance and Baroque periods, flourishing in 17th and 18th century Europe. Gesso, a mixture of plaster and glue, was used to create detailed, raised designs on wooden frames. Once dried, these designs were gilded with gold leaf, adding a luxurious finish. This technique was perfected in Italy and France, where artisans crafted mirrors that adorned palaces and the homes of the elite. During the Louis XVI era, neoclassical influences introduced symmetry and classical motifs, further refining the style. Today, these mirrors are cherished for their intricate craftsmanship and historical significance.
