Atmospheric and decorative pair of Venetian giltwood-framed mirrors with elaborate carved frames and ‘ribbed’ shell-style central cresting . The base of each frame carved with a stylised zoomorphic lion’s mask fitted with a metal ring to originally hold a candle-arm branch.

Smart pair of gilt mirrors to add symmetry, light and decoration to a period scheme .
