Early 19th Century Italian Two Tone Ebonised Box Mirror - No4

19th century
Description

We have been fortunate to get hold of some truly stunning 19th century Italian frames that we have added high quality 6mm mirror plate too.

These mirrors make incredible features on any wall in a great number of interiors. The design is arguably quite contemporary which is why I love this particular style of frame.

The moulding is incredibly fine and when I spoke to my restorer about these he informed me just how hard it is to make this moulding so it really is a testament to the crafts people of the time that created these.

This example is an early 19th century handsome addition to any wall. Deep original two tone ebonised frame in very clean original condition. The design is particularly unusual which makes it a feature in any space.

93cm by 75cm

Can be hung either portrait or landscape.

FAQs

Early nineteenth-century Italian ebonised mirrors typically feature rectangular box profiles with moulded wood frames. Stained to replicate natural ebony, these frames often feature subtle two-tone timber accents and clean Neoclassical lines.

Craftsmen constructed these frames using dense hardwoods or fruitwoods, applying specialised dark stains or lacquers to achieve an ebonised appearance. The glass plates were historically backed with mercury or silver mixtures to create the reflective surface.

Authentic period pieces display age-appropriate signs of wear on the ebonised finish, hand-cut joinery on the rear timber backings, and characteristic oxidation or foxing spots on the original mirror glass.

An ebonised mirror adds structure and contrast to modern interiors. Position it above a console table or within a narrow hallway, pairing dark timber frames alongside neutral painted walls and brass or stone accents.

Dust the wooden frame regularly with a dry, soft microfibre cloth. Avoid harsh chemical sprays on the ebonised surface and apply glass cleaner sparingly onto a cloth rather than directly onto the mirror plate.
