Resurrection of a mirror frame

I'm going to make a copy of these two "twins" mirror frames. After years, there is just a puzzle of eaten pieces of wood left, falling into dust...

I couldn't wait to start with the pearls...

Setting the volumes

Wings and feet !

The head

The flowers are glued up as on the original. Next is the undercutting work.

Once carving finished, I made an old silver patina and set the old mirrors in.
