Description
A handsome Victorian mahogany dressing table mirror, dating to the mid-19th century, of elegant and practical design.
The rectangular mirror plate is set within a shaped mahogany frame with decorative gilt slip, flanked by upright supports terminating in turned finials and retaining the original brass adjustment fittings.
