This dark wood mirror adds a rustic touch, with a sober presence and a patina that suits second-hand interiors. Its wooden frame highlights the reflection and easily matches an entrance console, a dresser, or a light wall. In the living room or in a bedroom, it captures light and gives a sense of space to the room without weighing down the overall ambiance. Its generous size allows it to be used free-standing, while its antique finish enhances its decorative character. In an entrance, it can accompany a stoneware vase and a stack of books for a chic and natural scene. Length: 80 cm Width: 6 cm Height: 140 cm A Brief History of the Louis Philippe Mirror At that time, the mirrors of great monarchs were recognizable by their cornices rich with decorations. However, during the reign of Louis-Philippe, a bourgeois style emerged, less concerned with originality than with comfort. The Louis-Philippe mirrors aimed to be more sober and refined. Unlike mirrors from previous eras, the wood was no longer carved but molded and coated with a glue primer. The top of the mirror's frame is rounded, resembling a gendarme's hat. For decoration, beads or acanthus leaves at the bottom highlight the cornice with a golden effect from gold leaf that illuminates the whole. Large mirrors placed above fireplaces bring clarity and perspective to living spaces.
