Fine Louis Philippe Carved and Giltwood Oval Mirror

Fine Louis Philippe carved and gilt-wood oval mirror, the frame with overall carved and pierced cartouches, the crest with a garland of leaves and flowers draped over a scrolling cartouche.

This is a wonderful mirror, built up in layers. Notice how the open cartouche surrounds the entire frame, with the more elaborate elements at the top and bottom. Now see how the garland of flowers appears to be draped over the top and woven through the openings, especially at 3 and 9 o'clock. Delightful!

France c. 1840
