Glaswegian Arts & Crafts Oval Mirror with Hand-Hammered Brass Frame with Stylized Scrolling Botanicals (LEO Design)

 

This Scottish Arts & Crafts mirror is not large, but it packs a big punch.  It was hand-crafted in Glasgow around the Turn-of-the-Century.  The heavy brass frame is handsomely tooled with deep, scrolling "botanical whatnots"—like a wreath of intertwining rose stems.  The crisp medallion-form frame, inspired by Adams (a Scotsman!), manages to confine the piece's sprawling, sculptural energy—which seems to want to burst-forth from the brass.
