An exceptionally preserved French salon mirror with refined beaded inner border and arched top crest. The mercury glass mirrors reflections with that warm, soft depth only antique glass achieves.

"Discovered in an estate in Normandy. Perfect leaned casually over a mantlepiece, above a marble console, or centered in a master bath."
