Tall Antique Indian Arched Mirror

$2,925.00
| /

The cusped arch is what draws you in: a scalloped opening framed by carved spandrels in a weathered, honey-brown frame, now filled with mirror glass in place of the original doors. Below it, a painted panel keeps traces of its original finish, a gold and ochre flowering tree in a green-black oval on a faded red ground. Arched windows like this were made in India as part of domestic architecture.

At 88 inches tall and 31 inches wide, this antique Indian window mirror is a tall, narrow piece for an entry, the end of a hallway or the wall opposite a window, where the arch can catch the light. It takes little floor, and the worn paint gives a neutral room one quiet point of color.

This antique Indian arched window has been converted into an 88-inch floor mirror, 31 inches wide. Mirror glass replaces the original doors within a carved cusped arch, and a lower panel keeps traces of its original red, green-black and gold painted finish. It suits entries, hallways and dressing areas for interior designers and collectors who want a tall antique mirror with real age.

Q&A
1. How do I style an 88-inch arched antique mirror?
Lean it against a wall in an entry or hallway, or place it across from a window so it reflects daylight. Its narrow 31-inch width fits tight spaces that a wider mirror would crowd.
2. How should I clean the mirror without harming the painted panel?
Wipe the glass with a soft cloth and a little glass cleaner sprayed onto the cloth, not the surface. Keep cleaner away from the painted panel and carved frame, and dust those dry with a soft brush.
