Tramp Art Rustic Wall Mirror, Handcarved, Austria circa 1880
Located in Lichtenberg, AT
Beautiful mid-sized rustic Tramp Art wall mirror coming out of Austria from the late 19th century. Handmade out of fine basswood around 1880, this great looking, detailed "Tramp Art" work has been processed in the so called "pyramid technique". This special design with elaborately handcarved wooden bars, the very dark brown stained, almost black looking surface and the protruding corners perfectly underline the rustic charm of this lovely antique Tramp Art wall mirror.
