Since they were artists with very little means, they carved the frames themselves from modest pine and left them ungilded. The patinas vary and, traditionally, are in hues or cream or grey. The carving is in the style of Louis XIV and Louis XV. The Montparnasse frame was favoured by many of the artists from the Ecole de Montparnasse and the Ecole de Paris.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin-bottom: 0px;\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCirca: Early 20th Century\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOrigin: France\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCondition: In lovely antique condition commensurate with age.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDimensions: 84cm h x 73cm w x 4cm d\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv data-reactid=\".5.1.5.0.0.0.1.0.1.$7.1.$1\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRef: 6283\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"AD \u0026 PS Antiques","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56624182526338,"sku":"6283\/6286","price":980.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0050\/3866\/9870\/files\/Montparnasseframedmirror-6283-1_3eb5dd7a-e975-4538-a8df-a406db05f20b.jpg?v=1778090686","url":"https:\/\/adpsantiques.com\/products\/large-french-montparnasse-carved-framed-mirror-1","provider":"AD \u0026 PS Antiques","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
