Gilded Wood Mirror, Maison Texier, Nantes – Late 19th Century
This sumptuous rectangular mirror, dating from the late 19th century, embodies the elegance and refinement of French decorative art of that era. Its wide, finely crafted giltwood frame evokes the aesthetic codes of the Louis XVI style while maintaining a sobriety that renders it timeless. The gilding, patinated by time, lends the whole a warmth and discreet nobility. The back of the mirror is carefully parqueted, a sign of quality craftsmanship. There, one discovers a precious inscription: "Maison Texier, A. Lanoë, successor – Nantes, 8 rue Boileau,” a testament to its Nantes origins and its time in the hands of a renowned master mirror maker. The original glass is mercury glass, rare and prized for the unique depth of its reflection and its subtle alterations that tell the story of time. This mirror is a fragment of history, a silent witness to bourgeois interiors, hushed living rooms, and exceptional craftsmanship. ********Period: 19th century. Perfect condition.
