About this item
Rare and Gem-like 18th Century Mirror from France made for a Ladies' Boudoir, the Red/Orange 'Bole' underlay showing on the Frame, and with original Gold and Silver Gilding adorning the Floral Carved pediment. ( Primary photo taken in my flat shows carved angel figure)
The top motif on the pediment being possibly a primitive or naive version of the 'Fleur-de-Lys, the French royal symbol- the 'Lillies' on the Bourbon flag of France.
An exquisite original piece from pre-revolutionary France. Measures 24 inches high x 13 wide,. In acceptably good condition with various wear and imperfections from its age and usage. An ancient piece of wood on the back gives support to the pediment. The original white bole = the gilder's underlay- visible in places. Made in France circa 1700-1780
