Beautiful and highly decorative Neoclassical wall mirror from Spain, dating to the early 20th century (circa 1930s). This striking piece features a finely hand-carved double-headed (bicephalic) eagle, crowned at the top, with symmetrical wings and tail details framing a central circular mirror.
Crafted from carved wood and finished with gesso and gold leaf, the frame displays a rich aged patina with subtle red undertones, adding warmth and depth to its character. The design reflects historical influences from Florentine and Federal styles, making it both elegant and timeless.
A rare find in this smaller size, perfect for adding a touch of old-world charm to a gallery wall or as a standalone accent piece.
