signed. This piece has a large original mirror with protruding open carved
top crest. The arched top features etched carvings of twigs with leaves.
There are applied carvings on the top and bottom of the sides with etched
carvings in the middle of the sides and base. A drip stain is on the bottom

Original gorgeous gilt decoration highlights the various moldings and fills
