About the Item

inglés español Francés Espejo con Marco de Plata peruana de principios de siglo 20 Magnífico espejo artesanal peruano con marco en plata repujada y cincelada, realizado a mediados del siglo XX. La pieza presenta una rica ornamentación de inspiración barroca colonial, con abundantes motivos vegetales, roleos, querubines, escudos y figuras alegóricas finamente trabajadas a mano sobre planchas de plata. Este tipo de piezas deriva de la tradición orfebre del Cuzco y Ayacucho, donde los artesanos mantuvieron las técnicas coloniales del repujado y el cincelado, adaptándolas al gusto decorativo del siglo XX. Su composición simétrica y la profusión de relieves reflejan la herencia del arte virreinal andino, con influencias españolas y autóctonas. 726 / 5.000 Mirror with Peruvian Silver Frame from the Early 20th Century A magnificent Peruvian handcrafted mirror with a frame of embossed and chased silver, made in the mid-20th century. The piece features rich ornamentation inspired by the colonial Baroque style, with abundant vegetal motifs, scrolls, cherubs, shields, and allegorical figures finely hand-worked on silver plates. This type of piece derives from the silversmithing tradition of Cusco and Ayacucho, where artisans maintained the colonial techniques of embossing and chasing, adapting them to the decorative tastes of the 20th century. Its symmetrical composition and profusion of reliefs reflect the heritage of Andean viceregal art, with both Spanish and indigenous influences.
