Description
A Louis XV mirror, finely carved and gilt wood, Florence, first half 18th century.
Details

This refined Louis XV mirror stands out for the elegance of its carving and the richness of its original gilding, executed with expert workmanship during the first half of the 18th century. The shaped profile, sinuous scrolls, and deeply carved vegetal motifs show full adherence to Rocaille taste, interpreted here with the lightness and harmony typical of the finest Tuscan workshops of the period.

The imposing vertical format gives the mirror a theatrical presence, ideal as a statement piece or for classic and contemporary interiors seeking an authentic 18th-century Italian accent. Warm, luminous gilding enhances the carving and creates a refined play of light, while the quality of execution and Florentine origin make it a highly desirable collector’s piece.
