Description
A dramatic and sculptural 19th-century Rococo Revival wall mirror, beautifully aged and brimming with character. The carved wood frame features exuberant scrollwork, floral flourishes, and a shell crest, all rendered in gesso and finished in a distressed red and silver polychrome surface that gives it a uniquely romantic patina.
