Dating from the late eighteenth century, France, a beautiful ribbed mirror with silver patina featuring its original mercury plate glass mirror. Its practical, mostly clear visibility and aesthetic beauty make this antique piece perfect for daily use in a powder bathroom or entry hall. 

Note: Mirrors have been photographed facing fabric, a technique that reveals any age spots in the glass. In some cases, this may create the appearance of an empty frame, but each mirror is complete except where explicitly stated.

This mirror contains its original mercury glass which sparkles beautifully in the light. The technique of making mercury glass mirrors was retired in the early 1900s. The mercury is fixed behind the glass in a solidified, non-harmful state.

Condition and wear consistent with age and use.
