About the Item

A rare and evocative 19th-century Syrian hand mirror, masterfully crafted from carved wood and delicately inlaid with shimmering mother-of-pearl. This exquisite piece reflects the rich artistic heritage and meticulous craftsmanship of the Levant, with intricate geometric and floral motifs typical of the region’s decorative traditions. The surface bears a beautiful aged patina, adding depth, warmth, and a sense of history. Minor losses, consistent with age and use, are present but do not detract from the overall charm and character of the piece. Both functional and ornamental, this mirror can also be elegantly displayed as a wall-mounted decorative object, making it a versatile addition to any collection or interior.
