A George III giltwood pier mirror almost certainly by the Linnell workshop.
Note: The mirror retains much of the original surface preparation, some of the original gilding and the original mirror plates.
The mirror belongs to a group of frames designed by John Linnell in the second half of the 18th century. The exquisitely carved dragon cresting corresponds in many details to a design drawing. The frame itself is unusually sparsely ornamented, corresponding to another design drawing by John Linnell.

  • Provenance

    Hotspur Ltd., London, England.
    Private collection, England.
