The condition of lots can vary widely and the nature of the lots sold means that they are unlikely to be in a perfect condition. Lots are sold in the condition they are in at the time of sale.
This mirror is in generally good overall condition.
There is a little discolouration and loss to the silvering of the apparently original mirror plate.
There is slight shrinkage throughout which has caused a little visual opening to the joints which remain firm.
There is slight warping to the cresting and lower frieze which has caused some of the inset brass flutes to lift a little.
The cresting re-secured, the screw holes to the top side visible from above. Possibly originally with brass finials.
Overall minor marks, scratches, knocks, dints and wear consistent with age and use.
This decorative mirror is structurally sound and in good usable condition.
