This dark wood rattan mirror brings a touch of refined countryside style, with its overlapping rings that softly highlight a decorative presence. Rescued, it combines glass and rattan in a round composition, making it easy to integrate into an entryway, a bedroom, or above a console. Its dark wood hue warms up a light wall and pairs well with antique linens, matte ceramics, or a few wooden frames. Hung alone or accompanied by a small dried bouquet placed underneath, it creates a simple and tidy scene. Height: 33 cm Diameter: 33 cm A brief history of the Louis Philippe mirror At that time, the mirrors of great monarchs were recognizable by their cornices adorned with decorations. However, during the reign of Louis-Philippe, a bourgeois style developed, less concerned with originality and more focused on comfort. Louis-Philippe mirrors became more understated and simplified. Unlike mirrors from previous eras, the wood was no longer carved but rather molded and coated with a glue primer. The top of the mirror frame is rounded, resembling a gendarme’s hat. For decoration, beads or acanthus leaves at the bottom highlight the cornice with a gilded effect that illuminates the whole. Large mirrors placed above fireplaces bring clarity and perspective to living spaces.
