Condition
In overall very good condition. The piece exhibits rubbing and wear to the gilt and ebonizing, some
quality touch-ups, shrinkage and indications of routine past repairs, most notably a repaired break to the
crest that is not visible from the front of the mirror.
The back now mounted on the mirror frame behind the plate is now cardboard.
The old plate exhibits substantial occlusions, fogging and irregularities in the silvering, creating an
attractive patina.
