About this Piece
A giltwood mirror after in the Thomas Chippendale manner after an antique in our archives originating from Biggs of Maidenhead, run by our family.
The mirror frame is entirely hand carved in mahogany with further detailing and definition carried out in the gesso layer. The 23¾ carat gold leaf has a ‘bright and matt’ effect with highlighted areas burnished with an agate stone and there is slight distressing to expose the bole beneath.
