Federal Period Mirror: Gold & White

Spectacular American Federal Period Mirror, Carved wood with gesso & gold gilt with the sweetest inset panel between the top  crest & the mirror of an unusual white original paint background & a horizontal applied wood carving of acorns & leaves. One of the most unusual features of the mirror is the side coloums.Bewteen the horizontal ribs are carvings, that resemble honey combs.

 It is a two part mirror.  It is in very good condition – just as I found it and just the way you like to see them. The gilding is water and oil – a combination of both intended to give the look of high & low luster. Dating from the late 1700’s into the very early 1800’s.  It is in a very nice state of preservation down to the federal balls that decorate the top crest of the mirror.  The mirrors are in very good condition. It measures 20” at widest x 3 ¾” at deepest x 31 ¼” at highest.
