An Impressive Pair of Large 19th Century French Painted Mirrors, Circa 1830

A wonderfully decorative pair of large early 19th Century French mirrors, circa 1830, of elegant Louis Philippe design.

Each featuring a beautifully shaped rectangular frame with rounded upper corners, surmounted by an elaborate pierced and carved foliate crest, with scrolling acanthus decoration and finely detailed floral embellishments to the lower corners.

The frames have been finished in a soft, aged and distressed old white paint, with subtle warmer tones showing through, giving them a particularly attractive decorative appearance and wonderful sense of character.

Of generous proportions and beautifully balanced design, these mirrors make an impressive statement when displayed together. Equally attractive individually, they would look magnificent above a pair of console tables, in a grand entrance hall, drawing room or bedroom.

A particularly appealing and increasingly difficult-to-find matching pair, combining the elegance of 19th Century French craftsmanship with a relaxed, timeless decorative finish.
