Italian Rococo Style Mirror With Gilded Brass Border

About the Item

Please kindly read the entire description, as we strive to provide you with detailed technical and historical information to ensure the authenticity of our objects. This fascinating and distinctive Italian Rococo-style mirror features a border made using the microcasting technique with brass, allowing for the intricate and ornamental details characteristic of this style. The back is a simple wooden slab with a small hook to attach the mirror to the wall. All the work is likely very handcrafted, considering the attention to detail and the precise fit of the brass border to the frame. The mirror was created between 1950 and 1955 in the Veneto region of Italy by a small local craftsman or workshop specializing in reproductions of historic styles. The Veneto has a long tradition of metal and woodworking, and it is a region known for the skill of its artisans in all areas, who are always attentive to the elegance of form and detail, with particular attention to the quality of materials and finishes. Rococo is a style that originated in France around 1720. The term Rococo comes from the French word "rocaille," which refers to the artificial rocks, stones, and shells used to decorate fountains, gardens, and grottoes. It is considered an evolution of the late Baroque; it evokes and reflects the aristocratic taste of court life. Its characteristics are recognizable by the great elegance and opulence of form, branching undulations in playful curls, and slight floral arabesques. The mirror, including the frame, is in good condition. Measurements: width 47 cm, height 66 cm, depth 3 cm. For all our shipments, we use special packaging materials (wooden crates, styrofoam, etc.) to ensure maximum protection and safety of the objects.
