A striking and beautifully scaled pair of carved gilt mirror shelves, standing an impressive 42” tall by 19” across. 

These pieces are all about presence- richly detailed with scrolling acanthus leaves, delicate shelf forms, and a sculptural bird crest that gives them a sense of movement and drama. The timeworn gilded finish has developed a gorgeous patina over time, with natural wear that only adds to their character and depth.

Pieces like this don’t come around often, especially as a true pair. They have that collected, layered feel that instantly elevates a space, whether flanking a doorway, anchoring a wall, or styled into a more traditional interior.

Elegant, unusual, and undeniably eye-catching.
