Description

• Important and rare designed George III Guilt Mirror in superb original condition.
• Was a very expensive mirror when made
• Notice the exquisite moulding of the shell and perfectly matched egg and dart details that only the finest of makers would have been able to achieve
• Has enjoyed centuries of careful hanging – with no indication of structural repairs and just evidence of selective gold leaf refreshing done to a very high standard
• This would have been bought for an extremely important residence (I would love to know how many aristocrats and perhaps even Royalty looked into it)
• This is a collector’s gem!
• Delivery £90 uk ex Scotland
• H 45" W 30" D 3""

Shipping
Other than a few smaller items that can be safely posted, nearly all items are hand delivered (and set up in the case of clocks) by Martin Bros who are one of Britain’s most prestigious carriers of antiques and fine art. I wish us avoid the hassle of cheap men and their vans! The standard (subsidised) delivery price shown is for mainland UK excluding Scotland. Please ask for a Quotation where the standard price is not applicable.
**************************************
Restoration and Presented Condition
I do not subscribe to the shabby chic or make it like new approach using modern materials which can make future restoration extremely difficult and impede long-term investment value.
Any restoration work is done to the highest (museum) standards using traditional materials so as to not compromise the patina of age.
Accordingly, please note some antique items for sale will have wear and marks associated with use over many generations that adds to the aesthetic beauty of the piece from the collector’s perspective.
**************************************
Fine Art - Condition
All Paintings offered have been chosen for their excellent original condition, with where necessary museum standard cleaning, restoration and revarnishing. Presented in Gallery condition they are ready to hang for many generations, before cleaning / revarnishing may be necessary.
