coming soon
An elegant Swedish Gustavian giltwood mirror ( Sweden, Circa 1790–1820) crowned by an exquisitely carved neoclassical crest featuring an ornamental urn, floral rosettes, and scrolling oak leaves. The refined architectural frame is enhanced with delicate beaded mouldings and retains its beautifully aged gilt surface with an exceptional warm patina.
The antique mirror plate displays the characteristic foxing and soft oxidation expected of early mercury glass, adding remarkable depth and authenticity. Richly carved yet restrained in its neoclassical elegance, this mirror embodies the timeless sophistication of the Gustavian period.
