The high traditional design of Old World is inspired primarily by classic European styles of antiquity. Clearly influenced by the later Renaissance period, which featured enrichment of ornament and outline, Old World reflects the elaborate details of the French and English translation of this significant architectural movement. Roman design standards like columns and pilasters were applied to furniture as well as a full complement of bases, cornices and pediments. The veneer is created by artistic use of cathedral cherry and exotic avodire veneers set off by fine herringbone inlay. Sculptural acanthus leaf carvings adorn the canted pilasters of the case pieces, and the case fronts are highlighted by a carved frame molding in a rhythmic Lambs tongue motif. The arched bonnet matches this mirror with the estate bed and armoire. Rich attention to detail is conveyed through the full compliment of the collections motifs. Canted pilasters feature acanthus carvings while bead and bobbin accent molding travels around the beveled mirror. Stylized leaf carvings transition from the cornice molding to the arched bonnet which crowns the mirror design. The carved picture frame molding with lambs tongue motif is picked up in the moldings framing the face of the bonnet top. These moldings terminate in sculpturally carved scroll and shell to match the estate bed. The finish is a rich and warm pomegranate shade that has both depth and clarity which allows the natural beauty of the wood graining to shine through. Burnished edges, hand rubbed fronts and machine rubbed tops provide a satiny glow that enriches the Old World feel of this collection.Beveled glass Carved molding around perimeter of the mirrorAssembly Required: No Collection: Old World Country of Manufacture: China Depth (Front to Back): 4 Distressed Finish: Yes Frame Shape: Rectangular Framed or Frameless: Framed Height: 53-1 7 Room: Bedroom, Living Room, Kitchen, Dining Room, Entryway Style: Traditional Type: Wall Mirror Weight: 56 Width: 47-5 7 Width (Side to Side):
