Key Design & Style Features
- The Laurel & Palmette Crest: The top crown features a deeply carved, high-relief palmette cartouche flanked by gracefully outward-sweeping laurel leaf sprigs. This botanical treatment represents a classic victory-and-honor motif popularized during the British Regency and the French Empire eras.
- Outset / Offset Corners with Rosettes: The corners of the frame project outward in a structured architectural step. Each corner square features an inlaid, ebonized black accent panel centered with a hand-carved, golden floral rosette disk.
- Detailed Egg-and-Dart Molding: The inner profile framing the heavy beveled glass features an incredibly crisp, architectural egg-and-dart carving line wrapped in gold leaf, providing notable depth and luxury framing.
- Antiqued Gold Leaf Finish: The frame is meticulously finished with hand-applied, burnished antique gold leaf, contrasted by the sleek black panel boundaries along the perimeter.
The mirror's frame is finished with antiqued gold leaf, lending it a timeless appeal. It is fitted with a beveled mirror measuring 24.5 inches by 36 inches.
