An exquisite example of the lavish taste of the Qing dynasty, this 19th-century mirror combines intricately carved cedar and camphor woods. The era saw a stable political climate and robust economy that fostered a desire for sumptuous and well-appointed furniture. This grand-sized mirror features delicate, airy carvings of bloom-filled vases and frolicking deer, emblems of longevity. Given the mirror's graceful, feminine appeal, it was likely originally hung in a lady’s sleeping quarters. Still resplendent, this majestic mirror imparts the warm glow of beautifully aged wood.
