Antique Arts & Crafts Convex Wall Mirror

The quality convex silver mirror insert is original to the piece and securely held in place behind the frame. It's entirely reflective. The round brass frame features interesting and unique decorations, all handmade. There is a raised foliage decoration of acorns and oak leaves linked together like a garland creating depth and texture. The bottom has the traditional hammered effect, in this case embossed from the back. The outer edges of the frame are trimmed with a pressed rope pattern. The exterior trim is flat and simple, emphasizing the round shape. The aged patina developed over the years has given this piece a rich golden tone and lots of character. The brass sheet continues along the sides to the back. On the reverse is the original antique solid wood backplate. To hang the mirror on the wall there is the original antique chain which is attached to two metal plates with a ring, each screwed to the wooden back plate. This antique wall mirror is in very good condition for its age. The antique patina has been preserved. The brass frame is solid with no missing parts or cracks. The brass surfaces have the original clear lacquer and a rich, attractive warm antique patina with minor surface marks. The original mirror surface is in good condition, with no cracks or chips and only a few areas of light foxing, which are uniform and reflective; all consistent with age and wear.
