Description
An Italian Giltwood Mirror
Late 18th Century
Height 66 x width 36 inches.
This lot is located in Chicago.
Condition
Scattered chips, losses, and restorations to the gilding. Some losses to the carved wood, several detached wood elements are present and could be reattached. The decorative cresting and side elements possibly "married" to the rectangular frame, but all exhibit similar age as does the mirror glass. There are wood blocks affixed to the back to reinforce stability at construction seams and sites of old repairs. Additional images available upon request.
