Mirrors Antiques



Description
Mirror in Kilim frame hand-decorated by an old hippie with bone, teeth, heishi beads and tassels. The kilim was originally a rug in poor condition so the best pieces were used for mirrors, seat coverings and other miscellaneous furniture. This mirror is about 25 years old.

Antique French ornate gilt mirror in fantastic original condition. France circa 1890





Description
Breathtaking antique French faux-bois mirror with all the original glass and decorated with bird, leaves, and grapes, all in untouched original condition. The hand-carved details are extremely realistic, you have to touch it to beieve it. Mirrors such as this are few and far between. France circa 1850





Description
Hand-carved antique French mirror in gilded gesso over wood frame with wonderful patina throughout. The soot marks still remain from the many years it most certainly stood over a coal burning fireplace and we chose to leave it this way. The condition is excellent; there has been some minor restoration and there is a leaf missing from the pediment. France circa 1920
