Mid Century Italian Gilt Florentine Wall Mirror, Italy circa 1940/50

Offered by: Masterpiece Antiques

Description
One of a kind, monumental gilt Florentine mirror from the early mid century period around 1940/50 in Italy. This extraordinary 20th century Italian wall mirror impresses with its massive artfully, open worked frame showing an absolutely gorgeous looking floral theme with handcarved acanthus leaves and a large shell in the top center. A real dreamlike, large masterpiece of a so-called "Florentine" mirror which has been a part of the inventory of an old stately villa in the beautiful countryside of the Tuscany area. The lovely gilt surface shows a charming patina and confers this incredible early 20th century mirror a very glamorous/ luxurious appearance. The mirror plate had to be renewed during the cleaning/ restoration process since it was already blind.
