The mirror glass plate of rectangular form is set within a stunningly hand carved, moulded and fluted giltwood frame, surmounted with an overhanging stepped pediment above panelled frieze with an intricately detailed arrangement of acanthus leaves, spheres, swags of bell husks, ribbon bows and applied flowerhead paterae decorative motifs. Raised over a pair of striking, fluted and stylised ionic pilaster columns to each side with beautiful acanthus leaf, scroll, and flowerhead detail, supported on shaped and moulded platform base.
