The Aurélie – Napoléon III Brass Repousse Mirror

Crafted in the Napoléon III style of the late 19th century, The Aurélie features intricate repoussé work in burnished brass—a technique where patterns are gently raised from behind to create delicate depth and texture. Mirrors like this once adorned French salons and bedrooms, catching candlelight and lending quiet glow to evening spaces.

We found her in a stone house near the Dordogne River, resting quietly against a paneled wall in the afternoon sun. With her warm patina and ornate detailing, The Aurélie stands beautifully on her own—a true statement piece.

Unlike the brighter gilt versions often seen, this one feels darker, softer—full of quiet depth.

Dimensions: 23"x13"
Please note: Light wear and patina consistent with age, to be embraced as part of her story.
