Charming Antique Hand Mirror Victorian Era


<<<< Back to Hand Mirrors & Sets

 

You will love this endearing Victorian era hand mirror from the late 1800's. It is a treasure that will enhance both your vanity and life, with style and sophistication.

Antique porcelain portrait hand mirror

This dresser mirror is well over 100 years old and exhibits the loveliest transfer decorated theme, isn't she a sight to behold, so beautiful indeed.







 

 

My photos are showing very well and tell the story of this outstanding portrayal. The domed porcelain back is eloquently figured with a stunning lady, dressed in period clothing and holding a sumptuous bouquet of lavender and snowy white lilacs. She has lovely dreamy eyes, brownish auburn long flowing hair which is also adorned with flowers. The colors on this hand mirror are crisp without fading and it looks even more striking in person. There are a couple of minimal paint skips in the leaves of the bouquet but that actually makes them look very dimensional and alive. The transfer decoration is well positioned and in very fine condition with lots of background shadings, the entire presentation is very pleasant and appealing. The porcelain itself is damage free, I don't even see a scratch. The golden brassy framing is exquisite as well. The deep embossed detailing to the handle exhibits an Art Nouveau flair and the scalloped outer perimeter edge is a delight.

  

The condition of the metal is superior, I see no dents or problems and everything has been cleaned and polished for your enjoyment.  The deeply scalloped border and detailing is reminiscent of the Victorian era and include some blended Art Nouveau designs. The original beveled mirror is in near mint condition, with a clear image and barely a sign of age, simply superb, the photo shows it reflecting my photography drape.  There is nothing standard about this hand mirror except it's size of 9 ¼ in length by 5 ¼ inches in width.  You will easily enjoy the quality that this antique hand mirror offers, please consider adding it to your vanity, let me know and I will put it aside just for you.
