Louis XV mirror in finely carved and gilded wood, Florence, first half of the 18th century
Description:
This refined Florentine mirror from the Louis XV period stands out for the elegance of its carving and the richness of its original gilding, expertly executed in the first half of the eighteenth century. The dynamic profile, sinuous volutes, and deeply sculpted vegetal motifs testify to a complete adherence to the Rocaille style, interpreted here with the lightness and harmony typical of the finest Tuscan workshops of the period.
The imposing vertical development lends the mirror a scenic presence, ideal as a standalone piece or in classic or contemporary settings desiring an accent of authentic Italian 18th-century artistry. The warm and luminous gilding enhances the carving and creates a sophisticated play of light, while the quality of craftsmanship and Florentine origin make it an object of great collectible value.
Height 210 cm, width 100 cm.
