A GEORGE II GILTWOOD MIRROR

Much of the collection at Herriard Park was dispersed in multiple sales at both Christie's and Sotheby's following the death in 1959 of Major F H T Jervoise, and the house's demolition in 1961. It is likely that this mirror was purchased at around this time. A similar, albeit more heavily ornate mirror, formerly in the collection of the Earl of Haddington, is illustrated in G. Child 'World Mirrors', London, 1990, p.88, fig.87 and another nearly identical sold in these rooms, 27 February 1992, lot 34.
