About the Item

George II Style Walnut Parcel-Gilt Hoho Bird Fretwork Wall Mirror, A particularly attractive George II style fretwork wall mirror dating from the Edwardian period, circa 1910–1920. The frame is veneered in well-figured, book-matched walnut with warm, even colour, and enriched with parcel-gilt highlights. The original silvered mirror plate sits within a moulded gilt and gesso slip, the whole surmounted by a pierced crest centred by a finely carved Hoho bird. The shaped apron and flowing scrollwork complete the Chippendale-inspired silhouette. Presented on its original panelled back with later wall-hanging fittings. Quality Presentation A decorative and well-proportioned early 20th-century mirror of good scale, displaying excellent surface and colour. Very well presented and ready to hang. Dimensions (Approximate): Frame: 93 cm (36 1/2") high × 53.5 cm (21") wide × 4 cm (1 3/4") deep Mirror plate: 59.25 cm (23 3/8") high × 40 cm (15 3/4") wide Condition: In very good condition, commensurate with age. The frame is structurally sound and sturdy, with only minor marks and small surface blemishes typical of gentle use. The walnut veneer retains an excellent colour and the parcel-gilt slip remains bright and decorative. The mirror plate is clean with mild age-related characteristics. Cleaned and waxed in our workshop and ready for immediate use. A handsome Edwardian mirror in the George II taste, with richly figured walnut, appealing gilt detailing, and a charming Hoho bird crest.
