The stunningly hand carved moulded and fluted giltwood frame with well figured birds eye maple panels throughout is surmounted with an overhanging stepped cornice with decorative lambs tongue detail above frieze with centred applied flowerhead paterae flanked with stylised bell husks, foliate and scroll detail. The mirror glass plate below of rectangular form is set within a decorative border of further lambs tongue detail, flanked trailing stylised bell husks and scroll detail to the pair of side birds eye maple panels to each side, supported on shaped platform base.
