Fine Antique Federal Period Parcel Gilt Wall Mirror c. 1830

This Fine Antique Federal Period Parcel Gilt Wall Mirror, dating to circa 1830, embodies the elegance and restrained beauty characteristic of the Federal style. The mirror features a finely crafted mahogany frame, highlighted with delicate parcel gilding. The upper section is crowned with a beautifully detailed urn, from which drapes of laurel leaves cascade down both sides, creating a sense of symmetry and balance. The intricate, yet understated gilding around the edge of the frame and the urn adds a sophisticated contrast to the rich, dark mahogany.

In nice antique condition, the glass has been replaced at some point, but the piece still retains much of its original charm. There has also been some touch-up to the gilding, which helps preserve its overall integrity while adding to its vintage appeal. The frame shows gentle wear and patina, enhancing its historical character. The craftsmanship of the period is evident in the quality of the wood and gilding, with expert detailing that remains evident despite the touch-ups.

This mirror would make a striking addition to any collection of Federal furniture or enhance the decor of a period-inspired home, offering both function and decorative flair. Its blend of classic design and elegance makes it a standout piece that conveys both beauty and history. 28h x 14w x 2d
