No the larger one is not beveled, neither is the small one. They are both made of wood.

Forgot about these 2 other mirrors we have. The smaller self standing  one my wife got about 15 years ago at a yard sale so dont know around how old it is. The larger one hanging on the wall was given to my wife by her father, and it was her grandparents. So 50 years old or more I'm guessing?

Here is the other mirror I have I was talking about. An old lady gave it to my mom like in 1962. I have seen old movies from the 40's and seen this in the background.

Van art?? LMAO   That van art was more like blacklight stuff then..LOL.. It is in incredible shape for being so old. Mirror reflection is not distorted at all. Have allways loved this mirror since being a kid.

Ghopper, the mirror I posted was in my grandmas house since I was 3-4 yeears old, since at least 1962 or 1963. And I was told she had it since very much earlier than that. I wish there was some info on the back of it, which there is not. I have one more mirror that my mother has had for many years that was given to her by an older woman back in the early 60's as well. Very old mirror too. Will post pics up later today of it.

Picked up what used to be my grandmas mirror. I had seen it there at here house since I was like 4 years old, and I am 53 now. I allways thought the images of the birds and scenery were painted on, but they are not. The birds and scenery were all outlined and cut out! And the color of the birds and scenery are actually about 1/2" behind the mirror, set in kinda. making it look 3dish. Anyone ever see any mirrors like this or know the era of them? Over 50 years old easily.
