Title: Antique Mirror I think -- does anybody know how old?
Post by: BelaIsabela on June 28, 2012, 10:38:25 PM

My wife and I found this mirror at a second hand store.... we fell in love with it and would like to know the age and history of the mirror... does anyone have any insight or clues after looking at the attached images?  Thank you!

Neat cartouche embellishment, but I'm inclined to think that it's not an antique.

Nice mirror !!  Likely made sometime in the 40`s  and probably at one time had a hall table that went with it !!  Fairly modern glass, not beveled edge !!  Still a nice find !!
