Description
Enhance your interior with the "Mirror Chippendale," a tribute to the timeless designs of Thomas Chippendale. Crafted with meticulous detail, its hand-carved black-finished frame complements the beveled mirror glass. Measuring L. 161 cm, W. 104 cm, and D. 7 cm, this mirror combines Chippendale's 18th-century elegance with contemporary flair. Although not published in Chippendale's 'Gentleman and Cabinet Maker's Director,' it embodies his classic aesthetic, making it a sophisticated addition to any space.
HISTORIC PROVENANCE
The Mirror Chippendale is inspired by Thomas Chippendale’s (1718–1779) design for a mirror (ca. 1753–62) in The Met collection. In 1754, Chippendale published the first edition of his successful book Gentleman and Cabinet Maker's Director, which contains 161 engraved plates for a range of furniture in the Gothic, Chinese, and Rococo styles, plus a series of plain domestic pieces. Though this particular mirror design wasn’t published in the book, it’s reflective of Chippendale’s popular English-Rococo aesthetic. Hand carved in an ornate black finish, our mirror features elegant bevelled glass.
Care instructions
HOW TO CARE FOR LACQUERED WOOD AND HIGH GLOSS FINISHES
Please follow a few basic rules to fully enjoy your lacquered or high gloss wood furniture:
- Avoid exposure to excessive sunlight, dampness and extreme temperature changes.
- Be careful not to leave a wet ring on the surface after watering flowers or plants.
- Don’t expose the furniture to scratches from pets or sharp objects.
- Use coasters and place felt pads under lamp bases and accessories.
Cleaning & Maintenance
To maintain the beauty of your luxury furniture, we recommend the following simple guidelines.
Lacquered Finish
Dust off regularly with a clean, soft dry cloth. For routine cleaning, mix a mild dishwashing detergent with lukewarm water. Dip a soft cloth into the mixture, wring it thoroughly and clean the furniture with it. The wood lacquer should not remain wet since water spots can damage the finish, so immediately wipe away the excess of water with a dry cloth.
