Mother of Pearl Inlaid Ebonised Mirror, 19th Century
Mother of Pearl Inlaid Ebonised Mirror, 19th Century
Antique Asian Hardwood Wall Mirror
A small central circular mirror edged with brass and a highly decorative carved ebonised hardwood frame.
Intricate inlay of mother of pearl and abalone shell fragments.
Unsure of exact origin, the previous owner said it was Anglo-Indian which makes sense from some elements of the design but this type of inlay on an ebonised ground seems more Chinese to me.
It is in good vintage condition, it is solid and sturdy, there is some wear and tear including some old woodworm, which we have treated and some missing inlay but nothing too serious and certainly nothing that detracts from the overall look. If anything the slightly worn appearance adds to its charm when hung on the wall.
Measuring 64cm high x 49cm wide.
