Late 18th Century Gilt Wood Pier Glass/ Gilt Wood Mirror In The Queen Anne Style, Circa 1790

£2,200    $2,980    €2,592
Behold a resplendent piece of history, the late 18th-century Queen Anne-style pier glass. This stunning mirror is a testament to the craftsmanship of a bygone era, featuring carved wood and gilt gesso that frame the reflective surface with ornate elegance. The gilt finish, gracefully aged, bestows upon the piece a dignified patina that whispers tales of its storied past. At its heart lies the original bevelled mirror plate, its edges cut at an angle to catch the light and create a captivating sparkle, much like the glint of sunlight on a tranquil river. This pier glass is not merely a mirror but a portal to the luxurious aesthetics of the Queen Anne period, reflecting not just the visage of the beholder but the opulent soul of the 18th century.
