Impressive Late 19th Century Zinc Window, Oeil de Boeuf, Frame or Mirror

A wonderful and unique way to repurpose an architectural element, this zinc dormer has been fitted with antiqued glass, allowing it to function as a monumental mirror. Originally a window surround on the façade of a 19th-century building in northern France, the frame measures 69 inches tall by 84 ¾ inches wide. At the apex of the curved top molding is a female mascaron above a scrolled console with a thick cabochon and foliate detailing.
