Frames and Mirrors
UNFINISHED 18th Century Antoinette swept Frames
I just love these frames. The chance to find a beautiful painting and then frame it is so much fun. But then you may like to paint your own work of art and have it hanging proudly in your mini gallery. Alternatively you might prefer to create a mirror to hang above a fireplace or table.
The detail in these beautitful frames is defined and will be more visible if you add a wash to your paint finish or gilding.
Tremeau French mirror Mirror with small oval 18th century
In French, trumeau is the word for the thin section of wall between two doors or windows. The word was first used to describe a mirror on that section of wall in the early 1700s. By the middle of the century, it was used to describe a mirror above a mantle.
The original trumeau mirrors were set into wood paneling, or boiserie (bwah-zer-EE), the fancy carved wall-covering of choice in the 17th and 18th centuries. Glass was an expensive resource so at first it was unusual to have even small mirrors set into the decor. As mirror glass became easier to produce in larger squares, it would occasionally be incorporated into paneling.
This lovely 12th scale Tremeau mirror measures externally 11cm high x 6.5cm wide
The large rectangluar insert is 6.7cm high x 4.5cm wide
It is sold without the mirror. TIP: create a paper template, draw around it on acrylic mirror before cutting the mirror.

My design has been based on an original mirror created by the renowned Alexandre Georges Fourdinois. The original can be found at the Château de Compiègne and is entitled "Psyché de l'Impératrice Eugénie". This is a beautiful example of mid 19th century Second Empire work.
