A Large 19th Century Italian Ebonised Square Mirror with outset corners
A Large 19th Century Italian Ebonised Square Mirror with outset corners
The rectangular mirror plate with appealing original foxing and oxidation throughout, set within a deeply moulded ebonised frame of stepped and projecting form; the broad flat outer border and inner sight edge applied with continuous ripple or wave mouldings of undulating profile, the characteristic rhythm achieved through the use of profiled wooden strips of alternating crests and troughs to create an effect of restless surface movement; the corners breaking forward as projecting square oreilles applied with conforming ripple-moulded ornament, the whole ebonised to a deep lustrous black.
