Chinese Fine Hardwood Wall Mirror with Original Glass, c. 1930

About the Item

It’s rare to find an antique Chinese mirror that still bears its original glass. Crafted in northern China during the Republic Period (1912-1949) of the early 20th century, this large wall mirror has remarkably survived the passage of time with its glass intact. The rectangular mirror is enclosed within an elegantly simple rosewood frame and backing. Decorated only by a beaded edge and a thin strip of boxwood inlay, the hardwood frame displays beautiful red-brown color, tight wood grain, and a smooth, lustrous finish, having achieved wonderful character over time.
