French Giltwood Sunburst Mirror with Silver Accents, circa 1940
About the Item
This French sunburst mirror from the 1940s radiates both light and drama with its dynamic burst of gilded wooden rays. Hand-carved from wood and finished in a rich gilding with silver-leaf accents around the central mirror, the piece reflects the post-Art Deco shift toward bolder silhouettes and ornamental flair. The rays are arranged in alternating lengths, creating a rhythmic visual pulse that adds texture and movement to the wall. At the center, a mirror rests within a sculptural surround of ovoid and ribbed detailing, finished in silver leaf that has mellowed into a beautifully nuanced patina.
Though unmistakably decorative, the mirror’s scale and structure make it highly functional — a striking focal point above a console, fireplace, or in a gallery wall. The sunburst form works seamlessly with interiors ranging from antique-filled to modern eclectic, injecting a touch of French mid-century glamour wherever it's placed. A classic silhouette with enduring appeal.
