Inspired by Venetian design of the turn of the eighteenth century, this spectacular pair of mirrors combine grand size and theatricality with delicate engraved decoration. The octagonal shape, the gilded metal frame, brilliant blue and engraved glass all recall the glass production and engraving in Venice at around 1700. The rhythmic repetition of expertly beveled blue and clear glass elements delicately etched with feathery floral decoration and inset in varying angles makes this pair of mirrors particularly beautiful.
