Decorative Asian‑style Mirror of Peace & Tranquillity

19th century
Description

A decorative Asian‑style wall mirror, richly painted with cranes, flowering branches and a rising sun motif — imagery traditionally associated with harmony, longevity and tranquillity. The frame is finished in gold and coloured accents against a dark ground, giving the piece a vivid, atmospheric presence. Below, a projecting shelf is adorned with lotus flowers, rocks and birds, forming a serene nature scene that complements the artwork above.

The mirror plate is clear and bright, set within a sturdy frame and fitted with strong hanging brackets to the back. A beautifully detailed piece that blends function with elegant hand‑painted decoration, offering a sense of peace and tranquillity to any hallway, bedroom or living space.

Strictly Vetted Dealers

Every single antique dealer on our platform is individually approved by our internal team. We verify their professional trade history, ethical standards, and photographic quality to ensure a secure, high-standard buying environment. Upon joining, every dealer agrees to a strict 9-point code of conduct. While issues can occasionally arise, our dealers typically resolve them swiftly and directly with the buyer. In fact, since our founding in 2002, Sellingantiques has only had to step in to help resolve an issue on roughly five occasions—a true testament to the quality of our dealers and their dedication to your happiness.

Secure Transit

Our dealers are highly experienced in packing and shipping fragile, high-value antiques. Because you are in direct contact with the dealer, you will be able to easily go through all available shipping and insurance options together to ensure your item arrives safely.

The Sustainable Choice

Antiques are the ultimate green purchase. By choosing historical pieces over newly manufactured goods, you completely eliminate the carbon footprint of modern mass production while preserving exceptional, timeless craftsmanship.

FAQs

Asian lacquered mirrors typically feature wooden frames finished with multiple layers of natural or synthetic lacquer, decorated with hand-painted or inlaid motifs such as cranes, flora, and geometric borders inspired by traditional East Asian art.

Traditional construction relies on a hardwood or softwood substrate sealed with successive coats of resin polish. Decorative elements frequently incorporate metallic pigments, washes of colour, and occasionally shell or bone inlay prior to final sealing.

Authentic lacquered items exhibit hand-applied brushwork, subtle variations in layer depth, and minor surface crazing or wear along edges. Examining the rear timber backing and frame joinery often reveals hand-cut construction techniques.

Position the mirror on a narrow wall, within an entryway, or above a simple console table to allow the dark background and gilded details to create a clear visual focal point alongside neutral contemporary furnishings.

Dust the lacquered frame regularly using a dry, soft microfibre cloth. Avoid solvents, abrasive polishes, and direct exposure to intense heat or direct sunlight, which can cause the lacquer coating to dry out and fracture.
