Mirror Period Louis XV, Middle 18th Century Carved and Gilded Wood 40 by 29 inches The decades between 1730 and 1760 saw the creation and development of a style that is the most brilliant, the most refined, and, arguably, the most charming ever devised. Called the “Louis XV Style” after the king who reigned France during this period, this style heralded the triumph of asymmetry and graceful, sinuous lines. A beautiful example of Louis XV design, this mirror’s theme is inspired by stylized flora and fauna. $12,400
