Large French Louis XV style giltwood mirror, late 19th c., having fanned gesso crest with scrolled foliate motifs, over arched frame with beaded trim, encasing flat mirror plate, loss and restoration to crest, hazing and silver loss to mirror plate, approx 79"h, 50"w, 150lbs
9.22.24-In my opinion regarding LOT: 3297- the gesso crest is intact with restorations including glue repairs, lines, small losses, and visible gesso, beading shows wear and small losses, gilding exhibits rubs and some minor paint touchups, the mirror plate is flat and with no noted chips or cracks, it shows age with general hazing and spotting throughout, this is difficult to photo, all commensurate with antiquity and the fragile nature of the crest
