Exemplary Queen Anne Walnut Cushion Frame Mirror with Original Plate c. 1700

This is a particularly fine quality example of a Queen Anne cushion framed walnut mirror with carved gilt slip to the inner border and Prince of Wales Feather carved and gilded cresting.

The original hand made mirror plate with a shallow bevelled edge and wonderful feint grey/gold hue. There are some small areas with natural degradation to the silvering but not many or significant as you can see from our photos and not affecting reflection quality. The walnut frame with ogee shaped border and a rich deep wonderful colour. Original back boards, some very minor repairs/restorations to the frame consistent with age and use.

Of tall elegant proportions, heavy and robust and very striking indeed, this is a rare survivor of 320 years or more and a very atmospheric and beautiful antique mirror.
