The larger piece features classic split-baluster columns, carved shell motif, and a reverse-painted upper panel depicting a pastoral scene with hand-painted floral corner blocks. The smaller mirror sports Gothic trefoil arcade detailing and acanthus leaf accents. Both show honest wear—gilding has mellowed beautifully with expected surface scratches, minor losses at edges. Mirror glass on both is original and functional with light foxing that adds character rather than distraction.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe D'Beetle Difference • Architectural Statement Pieces: Larger mirror: approximately 45\"H x 21\"W with bold turned split-baluster columns and projecting cornice with ball finials.
