Antique Persian painted glass mirror with giltwood frame

The giltwood framed mirror is of rectangular form and contains multiple panes of glass arranged geometrically and set within interior giltwood beading. The outer faceted frame is of simple design, while the mirror features rectangular sections overlaid with reverse-painted glass depicting bright arrangements of flowers and birds. The mirror is a superb example of Persian craftsmanship and a fine demonstration of the rare skill of reverse glass painting.
