Product Description
Antique Georgian George III Hanging Wall Mirror.
A superb example of a very rare Georgian Walnut Wall Mirror C1760
Crafted from a rich, warm-toned walnut, this is a truly authentic Georgian period hall mirror. The refined classical giltwood carving and graceful broken-arch pediment place it as a fine example of the mid-Georgian period, circa 1760—a golden age of English furniture design that spanned the reigns of King George II and George III. The mirror's silhouette is defined by an elegant broken-arch pediment at the top, complete with scrolling ears. The crest is adorned with a striking central motif depicting a gilt fretwork-carved detail with a plume of feather like acanthus leaves. The frame is a testament to its original craftsmanship, retaining its original wax-polished finish and a wonderful patina that has developed over time. A finely carved and gilded moulding runs along the inner edge of the glass, complementing the mirror's original plate. The glass itself features the characteristic "foxing" that collectors admire as a true mark of age. Below the mirror plate, a single piece of book-matched walnut veneer showcases the wood's beautiful grain. The lower section of the frame terminates in a gracefully carved, undulating shape with scrolling accents that echo the pediment above. This Georgian gem is in remarkable original condition. After a thorough inspection in our workshop, it was carefully cleaned and waxed to enhance its natural beauty and patina. It is a piece that would make a magnificent statement in any home.
Condition and Provenance As an antique, this mirror does show signs of age and use. While in fantastic condition, expect minor marks consistent with historical pieces.
