“The Dressing Mirror” Gilt Cherub Vanity Mirror

$225

PL-000101 · Circa 1920s–1940sA diminutive dressing mirror held aloft beside a seated classical figure, its pivoting oval glass tilting in a yoke frame. The once-bright gilt has softened with decades of handling — as much small sculpture as looking glass.

A note about vintage

Patina & Light objects have lived before. Small marks, softened edges, surface variation, patina and signs of handling are part of that history. We photograph and describe condition carefully, but we do not expect an old object to look new — nor would we want it to.

Please review all photographs and condition notes before purchasing. Questions, additional photographs and measurements are always welcome.

We believe age should be understood, not erased.
