Width: 40 cm Height: 70 cm Depth: 4 cm A brief history of the Louis Philippe mirror At that time, the mirrors of great monarchs were recognizable by their cornices laden with decorations. However, during the reign of Louis-Philippe, a bourgeois style developed, less concerned with originality and more focused on comfort. The Louis-Philippe mirrors aimed to be more sober and minimalist. Unlike mirrors from previous eras, the wood is no longer carved, but molded and covered with a glue primer. The top of the mirror frame is rounded, resembling a gendarme's hat. For decoration, beads or acanthus leaves are placed at the bottom to highlight the cornice with a gold leaf effect that illuminates the entire piece. Large mirrors placed over fireplaces bring clarity and perspective to living spaces.
