My photos are expressing the true nature of this set, the crisp color palette, the luscious burgundy roses are accompanied with pink roses, white flowers, multi colored greenery and a soft array of background shades. The transfer decorated floral display is on a white ground and is presented on slightly dome shaped porcelain discs. The artwork is gleaming with life and passion, as only roses can convey. The porcelain is in excellent condition, please excuse any light reflections. These pieces suffer no cracks, chips, hairlines or other issues, I barely can detect a scratch. The paint is intact, for the most part and I find no complaints with the artwork. The outer metal rims and handles are bright, they have been cleaned and polished to the best of my ability and look wonderful with a golden brassy tone. The rim to the hand mirror has several dents as well as moderate distortion along the top edge, noticeable only on the porcelain side, it is hard to take the eyes off the roses but you can see these defects in the photos. The brush rim has but a single small dimple and is a sweet matching piece.  
The handles are secure and strong, fully embossed with Victorian roses and leaves. The hardware is considered to be in good sound condition, with acceptable usage flaws for it's age of well over 100 years. The natural bristles on the brush are set in a wood base, although a decorative accessory, it is in very good condition and fully intact, looks to have had little use, showing only natural age. The original beveled mirror was cracked in several places to I replaced it with a quality mirror that has a wide bevel at the outer edge, much like the original and it is perfect. I show a photo with the reflection of our dining table leaded fixture, for clarity sake. The hand mirror measures approx. 9¼ in length and has a 5 inch viewing surface and the brush is proportionately a little smaller. Please don't hesitate if you love this set, I have been having a very difficult time finding hand mirrors with brushes that are as delightful as these roses.
