Baroque mirror in carved and gilded wood, Turin, mid-18th century Dimensions: cm H 194 x W 98 x D 10 Price: confidential negotiation Object accompanied by our certificate of authenticity The large and refined mirror, made in Turin around the mid-18th century, with original mercury glass, has a richly carved and gilded wooden frame. The frame, which surrounds the entire mixtilinear mirror with typical Baroque and Rocaille motifs (called "pannocchietta"), has an important and rich openwork crest where the ornaments are carved with phytomorphic and floral decorations. The crest, being slender upwards and openwork, lightens the richness of the ornaments, making the whole graceful and well-balanced, although very precious. The volutes and the movement of the elaborate architecture of this mirror make it a particularly valuable object, characterized by a beautiful gilding from which the warmth of the red color of the bole emerges. The mirror, very decorative and of great scenic effect, is suitable for display above a chest of drawers or a console in entrances, studies and halls or in a bedroom. Very beautiful together with antique furniture, it can certainly bring a sign of elegance and refinement if placed in modern contexts.

Period: Second half of the 18th century
