Pier Glass 1850 - 1904

Robert William Hume's "Pier Glass," a design print from 1850-1904, displays an ornate mirror frame in the Louis Quatorze style. The intricate design features a shell motif and swirling rococo flourishes around a blue-tinted glass. The piece demonstrates the continued fascination with historic styles during the Victorian period, and the design itself would have been used as inspiration for actual furniture making.
