<p>[QUOTE="Adrian Lewis, post: 2788251, member: 12565"]With verybrad. The French were fond of triple dressing mirrors/screens and I've seen a couple 19thC with gilt brass frames of varying designs but not a wooden one (even English) of this configuration although the decoration on the arches with the ribbon cross is reminiscent of the gesso decoration on some of their 19thC wall mirrors interspersed with ribbon bows. I've looked for Belgian and Dutch but this type of mirror doesn't appear to have been their thing. There are some varying types here both English and French that might open up an avenue of search for your unusual piece. <a href="https://www.google.com/search?q=early+20thC+mahogany++triple+floor+mirror&tbm=isch&ved=2ahUKEwiRu8SBrZHsAhUKYBoKHXyGAiEQ2-cCegQIABAA&oq=early+20thC+mahogany++triple+floor+mirror&gs_lcp=CgNpbWcQA1C86ARYiJAFYNaUBWgAcAB4AIABTogByQeSAQIxNJgBAKABAaoBC2d3cy13aXotaW1nwAEB&sclient=img&ei=SLl0X5H3GIrAafyMiogC&bih=759&biw=1560&client=opera&hs=jFO#imgrc=LBFzwKZduGRA6M" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://www.google.com/search?q=early+20thC+mahogany++triple+floor+mirror&tbm=isch&ved=2ahUKEwiRu8SBrZHsAhUKYBoKHXyGAiEQ2-cCegQIABAA&oq=early+20thC+mahogany++triple+floor+mirror&gs_lcp=CgNpbWcQA1C86ARYiJAFYNaUBWgAcAB4AIABTogByQeSAQIxNJgBAKABAaoBC2d3cy13aXotaW1nwAEB&sclient=img&ei=SLl0X5H3GIrAafyMiogC&bih=759&biw=1560&client=opera&hs=jFO#imgrc=LBFzwKZduGRA6M" rel="nofollow">https://www.google.com/search?q=early+20thC+mahogany++triple+floor+mirror&tbm=isch&ved=2ahUKEwiRu8SBrZHsAhUKYBoKHXyGAiEQ2-cCegQIABAA&oq=early+20thC+mahogany++triple+floor+mirror&gs_lcp=CgNpbWcQA1C86ARYiJAFYNaUBWgAcAB4AIABTogByQeSAQIxNJgBAKABAaoBC2d3cy13aXotaW1nwAEB&sclient=img&ei=SLl0X5H3GIrAafyMiogC&bih=759&biw=1560&client=opera&hs=jFO#imgrc=LBFzwKZduGRA6M</a></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]280413[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
