Sought after for its Louis XVI period, this rectangular resin mirror, featuring a gold-toned frame, adds a refined country note to an interior. Its clean shape emphasizes the wall and showcases a console, a dresser, or an entryway, while softly reflecting light. The resin provides a lightweight framing with a crafted appearance, easy to blend with patinated wood, linen, or discreet ceramics. In a living room, it will gladly accompany a bouquet of dried flowers and a lamp placed on the furniture below. As a second-hand item, it carries the memory of its history: a few traces of time. Length: 51 cm Width: 4 cm Height: 68 cm A Brief History of the Louis Philippe Mirror At the time, the mirrors of great monarchs were recognizable by their cornices decorated with elaborate designs. However, during the reign of Louis-Philippe, a bourgeois style developed, less concerned with originality and more with comfort. Louis-Philippe mirrors aimed to be more understated and streamlined. Unlike mirrors from previous eras, the wood is no longer carved, but rather molded and covered with a glue-based primer. The top of the mirror frame is rounded, resembling a gendarme's hat. For decoration, beads or acanthus leaves at the lower part highlight the cornice with a gold leaf effect that brightens the whole piece. Large mirrors mounted above fireplaces bring clarity and perspective to living spaces.
