About the Item
This noble hanging mirror is an excellent example of the purity and elegance of the Empire style. Originating from early 19th-century Austria, it embodies the aristocratic taste of the Napoleonic era. The foundation is a solid spruce frame, which is precisely veneered in walnut. The striking grain of the walnut wood lends the object depth and nobility.
The extraordinary decorative value is enhanced by carved gilded moldings that line both the inner and outer perimeters of the frame. These delicate details, combined with the dark wood, create a contrast highly characteristic of Austrian Empire furniture. A very valuable feature is the original mirror plate, which is finished with a bevel (fazet). The original glass refracts light around the edges, heightening both the luxurious appearance and the historical authenticity of the entire piece. As part of a professional restoration, the original wood polish was sensitively revived, restoring the frame silky luster and accentuating the contrast with the gilded elements.
It has been re-polished with polyutherane piano lacquer by our professional refurbishing team in Czechia according to the original process.
This item features classic Biedermeier elements. Visual simplicity, light-colored woods, and contrasting inlays characterize this style. Relaxed sophistication is the name of the game. Despite original Biedermeier pieces being over 200 years old, the furniture of the movement still feels fresh and modern.
