Art Deco Venetian Style Arched Wall Mirror

This is an elegant Art Deco era or Venetian style wall mirror, characterized by its distinctive arched top and scalloped side elements. The mirror features a central arched plate of highly reflective glass, framed with individual beveled mirror panels that contribute to its intricate and decorative aesthetic. The overall shape is irregular, with a prominent arch at the top center, flanked by concave curves that transition into a broader, roughly rectangular base. The mirror is adorned with decorative gilded or gold-painted motifs, including a prominent shell-like or volute motif at the apex of the arch, and smaller, stylized foliate or scrolling elements on either side of the arch and along the lower edges. These embellishments appear to be made of a molded material, possibly gesso over wood or a composite material, with a metallic finish that mimics aged gold. The mirror is designed for wall mounting, evident by the brass-toned metal hanging mechanism at the top, which consists of a central hook from which two chains descend to attach to the top corners of the mirror frame. The chains themselves have a vintage appearance, suggesting a period consistent with the mirror's style. The glass itself appears to be in good condition with clear reflection, though minor scratches or age-related silvering degradation (foxing) might be present upon closer inspection, particularly given its likely age. The decorative gilded elements show some wear and patina consistent with age, with potential chipping or discoloration in areas, though this adds to its antique charm. The craftsmanship suggests a commercially produced decorative mirror from the early to mid-20th century, likely between the 1920s and 1950s, a period known for its Art Deco influence and revival of historical decorative styles.
