Traditional, Mid-Century or Eclectic

Gilded and lacquered chest from Italy circa 1734-1745 with Italian carved and gilded Chinese Chippendale style mirror circa 1940s

Don't you think a black chest with a gold mirror always looks fantastic in an entry?  Or anywhere else for that matter.   I think the combination is beautiful.  I came across two chests and two mirrors on 1st Dibs that I'm crazy about.  I put the traditional chest with the traditional mirror and did the same with the two mid-century items.  Do you prefer one look more than the other?  Which one?

What about mixing the two?  I think the mid-century chest with the traditional mirror is my favorite.  The eclectic look is just more interesting to me in this case.  What do you think?  And aren't these pieces gorgeous?!
