Venetian Mirror In Iridescent Glass, Late 19th Century

Elegant Venetian mirror from the late 19th century, richly decorated with flowers and foliage in blown and hot-shaped glass, distinguished by a refined iridescent opalescent effect of remarkable brilliance and visual impact.The composition, entirely Venetian in taste, features floral appliqués and scrolling elements in transparent glass, harmoniously arranged along the shaped outline of the mirror. The quality of the glass, the complexity of the workmanship and the chromatic refinement attest to a high-level production, intended for a refined interior setting.The iridescent glass used for the appliqués belongs to a type whose traditional production was gradually abandoned during the 20th century and effectively ceased by the 1950s–1960s, making such pieces particularly sought after today.ConditionThe mirror has been fully dismantled and restored:complete cleaning of all glass elementsrenewal of the silvered backing of the structure to restore brilliance and deptha few original screws, no longer available, have been replaced with modern screws, appropriately adaptedMinor losses and small chips are present on the tips of some leaves, with one more noticeable than the others. These signs are consistent with the age of the piece and do not detract from its overall harmony or decorative effect.Overall, the mirror is in good condition, featuring high-quality glass and excellent luminosity.DimensionsHeight: 70 cmWidth: 48 cmFor further information, photographs or technical details, please do not hesitate to contact us.
