A Good George 111 Giltwood Revival Mirror in the Manner of John Linnel

• Very decorative and dramatic mirror – to a design typified by the prestigious late Georgian cabinet designer and maker John Linnell who worked for only the wealthiest aristocrats and estates such as Castle Howard and Badminton House.

• From a large antique collection housed in a property forming part of the Royal Crescent Bath.

• The gilding is totally original with no sign of damage and so was a real find. The mirror panel has been replaced so in sparkling condition.

• Very useful and dramatic for both the period or modern setting.

• Delivery £80 uk ex Scotland.

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.
