Hello, seasoned reflection enthusiasts! I am selling this magnificent octagonal Venetian mirror (dimensions: 90 X 56 cm). This is not a mass-produced replica, but a genuine antique piece with its delicate floral engravings and bevelled edges that catch the light like no other. Its style. It is ready to take pride of place in a Haussmannian living room, a bohemian entrance, or above a marble fireplace. It immediately brings a touch of Italian nobility and old-world elegance. Its condition. Let's talk about it transparently. This mirror has traversed decades, and it shows. It is not "as good as new, " and that's a good thing. The silvering is spotted, oxidised in places, particularly on the outer decorative elements (see detail photos). Some might say it is damaged; I say it has character, an unimaginable patina, and it tells a story. The wooden back is solid, ready to be hung. The bonus. It has been tested and approved by my cat (see the bonus photo, cat not included in the sale, sorry). That says a lot about how soothing it is. The challenge with such pieces is photographing them with as little reflection as possible while their primary function is to reflect... I've done my best. If you are looking for a perfect mirror for flawless makeup, look elsewhere. If you are seeking a soulful piece with character, you have found it. Dimensions: Height: 90 cm. Width: 56 cm. To be collected on-site or delivered via Selency carrier (strongly recommended given the fragility of the piece).
