Description
George II Style Walnut & Parcel-Gilt Hoho Bird Fretwork Wall Mirror,
A particularly attractive George II style fretwork wall mirror dating from the Edwardian period, circa 1910–1920. The frame is veneered in well-figured, book-matched walnut with warm, even colour, and enriched with parcel-gilt highlights. The original silvered mirror plate sits within a moulded gilt and gesso slip, the whole surmounted by a pierced crest centred by a finely carved Hoho bird. The shaped apron and flowing scrollwork complete the Chippendale-inspired silhouette. Presented on its original panelled back with later wall-hanging fittings.
