style convex mirror with reeded/strapwork edge, spherules, and ebonized

spherules, minor losses to rim, and all gilded areas coated in bronze
paint.

Restoration included new gesso on spherules and water gilding, and replacing flat mirror plate with a lightly distressed convex mirror. This mirror would now be the focal point of any room. | ||
