The Dunmore Pineapple, the eighteenth-century stone pineapple near Falkirk, is the best-known sign of an old custom: the pineapple as a welcome to guests. This mirror carries that welcome into the hall. Crowned with a gilded pineapple, it is the last look before you open the door to friends, and at nearly six feet tall it fills an entry with light and makes even a narrow hall feel generous.
The frame is finished in gold leaf, which gives a soft, warm shine rather than a hard glitter, and the pineapple crest rises from the top of the frame. Gold leaf, beaten thinner than paper, has been used to gild frames for centuries because it catches candlelight so gently. At 79 lbs it needs secure fixings set into studs. It arrives fully assembled.
Hang it in an entry above a console with a bowl of keys and a vase of flowers, or over a dining room sideboard where it doubles the candlelight. This listing is for one mirror.
