Large mahogany veneered psyche mirror, French Consulate period circa 1800.

High quality production, not stamped but very close to Jacob Freres or Marcion (probably made by one of the two).

Created at the end of 18th century, psyche mirrors allowed ladies to see herselves full-length. Psyches were particularly fashionable under Consulate, Empire and Restoration periods. The imperial residences such as Fontainebleau or Compiegne were full of it.
