French 1790s Louis XVI Giltwood Wall Mirror with Carved Gardening Crest

A French Louis XVI period giltwood mirror from circa 1790 with carved crest depicting a gardening theme. Atop the mirror, a meticulously carved crest reveals a romantic gardening theme. A quaint garden hat takes center stage, flanked by gardening tools including a spade, all set against a backdrop of laurel and oak leaves, symbols of victory and strength. The corners of the frame are adorned with delicately carved rosettes, adding a touch of floral elegance, while the surround is intricately detailed with beads and rais-de-cœur patterns, enhancing its sophisticated appeal. This mirror, with its combination of rustic charm and aristocratic elegance, could serve as a magnificent focal point in any room of a home. It would be particularly fitting in a living room, entryway, or garden room, where its thematic elements can be fully appreciated.
