Hand Mirrors Facts & Tips

 


Charming Art Nouveau Hand Mirror Brush Set With Pink Roses


We Have More Antique Hand Mirrors, Many With Brushes

 

No doubt, roses are amongst the more popular flowers and this hand mirror and brush set depicts some very large pink roses in full bloom.

This vanity set is particularly unique, in that, it exhibits silver plated Art Nouveau framing along with gold gilt banding encircling rather robust pink roses.

It is unusual to see the use of both silver and gold together but it does make for a very special presentation. Even though I have picked up some reflections in my photos, they show these pieces very well, including the color tones. The all-over and abundant transfer decorated artwork makes this set especially appealing and attractive. The roses cover the greater portion of the porcelain backs and are, for the most part, in very good condition. The porcelain suffers no damages and there is just a little wear to the paint here and there, especially on the outer gold gilded borders. In my photos, you will see some darkened areas on these gold borders but they are just reflecting my black shirt, I couldn't seem to avoid it. My photos are very good and show exactly what you should expect to receive, there is no black in the gold gilt borders. 

  

The silver plated rims and handles are decorated in an Art Nouveau style, as shown. This set was made during the turn of the 1900 era. I have cleaned and polished both pieces, as best as I could, it is secure and strong, however, there is some small denting to the rims on both pieces, more so on the hair brush. Overall, the condition of this set is in good, sound, antique condition and has plenty of life and glamour going for it. The original beveled mirror was no good so I replaced it with a clear quality mirror having a wide bevel at the outer edge, much like the original. I am showing a reflection of my dining table light fixture  for clarity sake. The hair brush bristles show their age but the brush is a wonderful and desirable decorative accent piece to the hand mirror. This mirror measures the standard at 9¼ inches in length with a 5 inch viewing surface and the brush is proportionately a little smaller.  This unique antique porcelain backed Art Nouveau hand mirror and  brush set offers a different color combination of silver and gold, not likely to be seen again any time soon. Please review all the photos closely and determine that you can love this set and it can add grace and distinction to your vanity.
