This late 19th-century wall mirror, measuring 48 × 29 cm, is built around a sculptural frame crafted from highly polished brass. The surface radiates a warm, mirrored gold that, thanks to meticulous polishing, achieves a lustrous sheen characteristic of luxury objects from the era. The frame undulates with flowing, asymmetrical contours and features upper and lower decorative accents reminiscent of naturalistic, shell-like rococo or late baroque motifs. The design avoids excessive ornament—soft lines and flaring proportions highlight a sense of fluid movement and visual lightness. The mirror glass, cut to follow the irregular frame outline, features beveled edges and remains clear and undamaged. After expert restoration, the brass is free from visible patina or structural flaws, with all joins precise and stable. The piece is in very good condition following careful professional restoration. The expressive curvature and radiant reflections of the brass frame speak to a time when ornament was narrative—the mirror might tell of a chiaroscuro that once danced across the parlour, refracted in its calm surface. Its gold finish never overwhelms, instead catching and diffusing light softly onto the wall. Though rooted in history, the form appears perpetually in motion: an echo of a gesture, a swirling gown, or the sweep of a balustrade frozen in mid-century décor
