ITEM SW00945:
A Carved Gilt Classical
Hepplewhite Mirror Probably
American or English, c.1810

This is a beautiful mirror
with a carved giltwood urn draped with leafage on
top of a fine carved frame also of giltwood. This
is not a cheap plaster later model, but of the period.
Decoratively, the mirror below is embellished with
draping swags; also, the border design encompasses
variegated rope molding with its original boxed corner
rosettes, all of which makes this a very inviting
and fine mirror (please see details below). The gilt
is original, as is the glass.
Height:
47 1/2 in. Width: 22 1/2 in.
