Excellent. (8). An amazing thing! Very heavy, too big and fragile for Australia Post and so the buyer will need to arrange picking up or a specialist transport company for this mirror. There is no loss or flaking to the print at all, fabulous detail, the way shiny gold leaf or similar has been applied to part of the lettering with the remainder being a dull gold to give it a three dimensional appearance adds to the appeal. The black border has a bit of delamination along the bottom edge and a few little bubbled marks around the other edges. A bit of a dull appearance in place, some of this is on the outer surface and will wipe off, but looks like there is a little dullness to the reflective surface under the glass in places, common for mirrors of this age. Four holes have been drilled in the frame for mounting purposes, the four mounting screws come with this item. A bit of flaking to the bottom edge of the timber frame. Fabulous item all round, in person it is quite amazing, we welcome any viewings on appointment, just contact us to arrange. Estimate: $2500-3500
Reserve: $2500
