20th Century English Wood & Plaster Framed Convex Mirror

About the Item

A mid 20th century convex mirror in wood and plaster of good proportions, measuring an impressive overall 93cm in height. Convex mirrors played an important role in the running of the Regency household.

Hence, the convex mirror came to be known as the butler’s mirror. This example dates to middle part of the 20th century and makes a wonderful addition to any interior, whether traditional, mid century or modern. Fantastic as part of a collection or as a stand alone item. CONDITION Minor chips and damage throughout, overall fairly good vintage condition, please refer to photographs.
