A fine quality late Georgian dressing table mirror in mahogany with ebony stringing, standing on ebonised ball feet, with two drawers with lion mask handles. The mirror plate has a nice amount of foxing, mainly around the edges, so it is still useable.
An elegant and beautiful late Georgian / Regency era mirror, in very good condition. The ebony diamond pattern stringing is a great detail and the drawers are incredibly delicately made, with fine oak liners and some of the tiniest little dovetails I’ve ever come across.
One of the handles is a little bent but other than that there is nothing to note other than some general surface wear in accordance with its age. The mirror plate has some foxing but it is still useable (if you don’t mind a slightly hazy reflection). The mirror plate appears to be original, but it’s possible it has been replaced at some time in the past.
