{"product_id":"louis-philippe-arched-floor-mirror-cream-gilded-acanthus-crest","title":"Louis Philippe Arched Floor Mirror - Cream Frame with Gilded Acanthus Crest","description":"\u003ch2\u003eDesign \u0026amp; Inspiration\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThere is a particular quality to entering a room anchored by a full-length floor mirror: the space seems to breathe more deeply, the light multiplies, and the eye finds an immediate focal point. This mirror, faithfully reproduced in the tradition of the Louis Philippe period (1830–1848), captures the quiet confidence of that era — a moment when French taste moved away from Napoleonic grandeur toward something more intimate, more liveable, yet no less refined. The arched plate, rising to a softly curved top, is the defining gesture: not the strict geometry of Neoclassicism, nor the untamed asymmetry of Rococo, but a graceful middle path that reads as timeless.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eMaterials \u0026amp; Craftsmanship\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe frame is built from solid pine, shaped and finished by hand in Brass \u0026amp; Wood's Egyptian workshops. The cream-painted surface is applied in multiple coats and rubbed to a soft, aged finish — suggesting a piece that has earned its patina over time rather than being born with it. The acanthus leaf cartouche at the crest and the scrolled acanthus clusters at the lower corners are cast in resin and finished in antique gold gilding, providing focused ornamental emphasis without overwhelming the frame's restrained lines. The gilded elements are sealed to resist tarnishing and humidity.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eDimensions \u0026amp; Details\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eWeight: 15.0 kg. Dimensions: N\/A — please contact us for exact specifications or to discuss custom sizing. The mirror plate is full-length, proportioned for both freestanding and wall-leaning placement. The arched top adds visual height, making it equally effective in a wide hallway or against a bedroom wall.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eHandcrafted in Egypt\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eEvery mirror that leaves Brass \u0026amp; Wood's workshop is the result of hands-on craft at each stage: the frame is joined and shaped by experienced woodworkers, the painted finish is applied and distressed by hand, and the gilded ornaments are individually placed and sealed. Egypt has a long tradition of skilled decorative woodwork, and this mirror is a direct expression of that heritage applied to a beloved French furniture form. When you choose this piece, you are choosing a mirror that no machine could replicate in its particular warmth and finish variation.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat materials is this mirror made from?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe frame is solid pine with a hand-applied cream antiqued paint finish.
