The pair have been used upon the north and south walls of a vaulted gallery room for years but could serve well adorning formal rooms off of a central foyer. It is unusual to come upon a matched pair of these rare, stately looking glasses. these mirrors are currently seated upon gold-painted wooden supports in lieu of the mantels which they should adorn. The supports can remain with the mirrors, should the buyer so desire. the photograph of the north mirror shows the south mirror, facing it, in reflection. all items are sold "as is".
