This 18th century Italian gilt wood mirror is hand carved with pierced openwork crest dating to 1740-1780. Rare to find in that it is structurally all original. It has original gesso and red bole visible at points of wear beneath original water-gilding, with later gilt and gold paint retouching. This is a rare find and a stunning piece of history.
