| sw00956: A Large Mahogany Queen Anne Mirror, c.1760, American or English This is a fine early Queen Anne mirror of unusually large size. We have French polished the mahogany. Note the beautiful carved silhouette edgework and unusual final. Since it has a later mirror, we have priced it accordingly. |
| sw00732: A Mahogany Chippendale style Mirror with Carved Gilt Shells, labeled Kaplan Furniture This is a fine reproduction of an original elaborate 18th century mirror done by one of the fine Boston furniture makers of the 1920's . It has it's paper label showing it was made in 1922. It is in mint condition, as is the beautiful blockfront bureau it came with. |
| sw00503: Federal Mahogany Mirror with Gilt Eagle, Boston, c.1810 This mirror was a very popular form and a mate to it is illustrated in The Mirror Book, Herbert Schiffer. While these mirrors were made in great number, condition the critical element their value, and this mirror, which has an amber mellow glow to the mahogany, has no breaks or repairs whatsoever and retains its original glass and backboard. |
| sw01050: A Carved Mahogany and Giltwood Chippendale style Mirror, 19th century This is a good-sized mirror with a strong presentation. The mahogany is of the best quality with strong ribbon grain. The carving is also very deeply carved and all of wood that has been gilted (no plaster). It is a superb example and produced in the latter part of the 19th century. Note the fine carving along the sides of the mirror and the large sized-dramatic cartouche above. |
| sw00322: Monumental Neoclassical Gold Leaf Over-mantel Mirror, c.1840 This mirror is fully constructed of wood and retains its original gold leaf surface. It is extremely massive and architectural, the corner blocks are deeply carved and three-dimensional in depth (5 inches deep). Over mantel mirrors in any period are relatively scarce and this is an exuberant example. |
| sw00945: A Carved Gilt Classical Hepplewhite Mirror Probably American or English, c.1810 This is a beautiful mirror with a carved giltwood urn draped with leafage on top of a fine carved frame also of giltwood. This is not a cheap plaster later model, but of the period. Decoratively, the mirror below is embellished with draping swags; also, the border design encompasses variegated rope molding with its original boxed corner rosettes, all of which makes this a very inviting and fine mirror. The gilt is original, as is the glass. |
| sw01296: A Classical Gilt Mirror w/ Carved Panel, American, c.1820 This mirror retains its original glass and backboard, the gilding is original and the carved panel is quite uncommon. It is in excellent condition, and of good size. |
| sw00405: Gilt Federal Tabernacle Mirror with Reverse Painting, New England, c.1800 This mirror is a classic of the form and retains its original reverse painting of a pastoral scene, and glass. Also, note the horizontal mirror inset above the reverse painting, an embellishment that is seen in finer examples. The classic cluster columns are developed with small acanthus carving at the top, just below the upper rosettes. |
| sw01415: A Classical 3-part Overmantel Gilt Mirror, 1830 This overmantel mirror is fully developed with acorns and carved embellishment on all its gilt surfaces. The gilt is original, as are the mirrors and backboards. |
| sw01079: A Federal Gilt Tabernacle Mirror with Stars, English or American, c.1810 This is a very delicate mirror which retains its original gilt and is in extremely fine condition. It has an unusual three-star motif in the tablet, which is quite unusual and special. The glass appears to be first. |
