Pair of Round Chinese Hand Mirrors, c. 1930

About the Item

These charming hand mirrors date to the early 20th century and feature round mirrors set within turned hardwood frames. Minimally decorated, the pair is simply carved to showcase the tight grain and even coloring of the fine hardwood. The handles are shaped with smooth, hourglass contours that fit in the hand nicely. From the collection of Frances and Gary Comer.
