The Regency style, named after the regency (1811-1820) of Prince George of Wales, crowned as George IV, King of England (1820-1830), is characterized by the incorporation of large and ornate shapes. These are pieces often enriched with a taste increasingly attentive to exotic Turkish, Indian and Egyptian stylistic themes. This typology of mirrors was worn in the most distinguished palatial rooms as attested to by recognized publications such as Nancy McClelland's "Duncan Phyfe and the English Regency".
