A moving company had lost the crown to this Rococo antique vanity so the part was recreated based on the style of the furniture.

The new crown prior to it being carved & gilded

Replication:

1.) The movers had lost the crown to this Rococo antique bedroom vanity

2.) An appointment was made to pick up the mirror and determine what style of furniture the crown was to be made for.

3.) After seeing it we immediately knew it was Rococo and that the mirror should have a rosette style gilt crown.

4.) We faxed the owner a drawing depicting what was to be carved for authorization, and she gave us the green light with her signature.

5.) She was relieved to know that we knew what style of crown belonged there because she had trouble articulating it. 

6.) The finished results were flawless.
