Large Antique French Louis Philippe Gilt Mirror - Ch. Buquet Paris.

19th century

Sold by French Antique Company

Description

Beautiful antique French Louis Philippe gilt mirror.

This is one of 3 almost identical frames I bought from à Paris house. 2 are the same size and one is wider and slightly shorter.

Its gorgeous gilt frame dates from around 1860 and is in superb condition with its lovely original gilt (real gold leaf) on gesso in an etched leaf design and backboards with the maker's stamp CH. BUQUET PARIS on the back.

Its heavy glass is in excellent condition, no scratches but is NEW and not original to the frame.
