DECORATIVE MIRRORS

DECORATIVE MIRRORS IN CARVED WOOD GOLD LEAFED FRAMES

At the end of eighteen century beautiful decorative mirrors in gold frames brought an element of a fairy-tail dreams to life. Exquisite decorative mirrors invaded all spaces of social interaction, replacing tapestries and other wall decorations. Mirrors with carved wood frames finished in gold and sliver leaf played a great role in interior decorating. Decorative mirrors surrounded by elaborate carved and gilded frames could be found in any room of stylishly decorated houses. Decorative mirrors were placed in the bedroom, dining and sitting rooms, between windows and above fireplaces, almost wherever they turned, ladies could look at themselves from head to toe at leisure. In the 18th century decorative mirrors with gilded frames were extremely popular. Large demand on decorative mirrors and rising competition forced mirror makers to be twice as imaginative with regards to materials and shapes. At the end of 18th century round and oval mirrors shaped were invented, as well as rectangular ones with cornices. The decorative mirror's frames were lavishly embellished with urn motifs, elegant swags and drops, the rococo style mirrors with intertwined branches, foliage, and garland of flowers. 

Decorative frames for the mirrors introduced on this page are hand crafted from wood. Mirrors have an antiqued real gold leaf finish carefully applied on the wooden frame. Mirrors on this page are vertical mirrors, they vary from 43 to 67 inches in height. Our decorative mirrors are finished with real gold and silver leaf. This type of finish can be done only by experienced craftsman. During this process gold is pounded to create wafer-thin sheets of gold. This gold sheets are then applied with the utmost care and special glue to the carved wood frames of the mirrors. Because the sheets of gold are so thin, they must be carefully handled or they will be disintegrated when touched. Gold-leafing frames of the mirrors is a labor intensive and time consuming process. Don't underestimate the crumbling patina on an antiqued carved wood decorative mirrors. Patina on the framed mirrors adds charm and a sense of history. These mirrors will definitely add a warmth to any room.
