A handsome mirror always adds an extra touch of elegance to any interior. Antique French gilded mirrors look just as good in a modern interior as they do in a classic one.
The frame of this mirror is decorated with a foliage motif. It features a pediment with a central crest surrounded by two Griffins. The "Griffin" is a legendary creature found in many ancient cultures. It is represented with the body of an eagle (head, wings and talons) grafted onto the back of a lion (abdomen, legs and tail), and equipped with horse ears.
The griffins on this mirror have unfortunately lost their heads, but the mirror has lost none of its charm.
