19th Century French Giltwood And Split Glass Mirror

This magnificent split-glass and giltwood mirror was made in France in the 19th century.

We have two identical mirrors from the same estate. Although they are not a pair, they are very similar. We can sell them together or separately, according to your preference. This one is slightly larger. Please feel free to contact us with any questions. The original mirror surface is composed of two sections on both mirrors, a common feature of large mirrors from this period.

The giltwood frames are decorated with an egg-and-dart border.

These two mirrors come from the estate of the late American actress Dodi Heath (1934-2019). Dodi Heath is best known for her role in the film "Brigadoon" (1954) alongside Gene Kelly and for her starring role in "The Diary of Anne Frank" (1959). She had a long and distinguished career in theater and film. His apartment in St James's, London, was renowned for having hosted a host of stars, from Muhammad Ali to Frank Sinatra, etc. The decor was typical of 1970s glamour, designed by the famous designer Nicky Haslam.
