Description from the seller

Art Nouveau Hand Mirror in 900 Silver – circa 1900 – floral repoussé

Elegant small hand mirror made of solid 900 silver, crafted in the Art Nouveau style around 1900–1910.

The back features a sculpted, floral decor with curved leaf and blossom motifs in the typical organic design language of the fin de siècle. The background is dotted, creating a beautiful contrast to the highly polished relief.

The mirror is stamped with “900” as well as the master mark “A.S.”

Details:
• Material: 900 silver
• Hallmarks: “900” and “A.S.”
• Era: Art Nouveau (c. 1900–1910)
• Length: approx. 12.5 cm
• Mirror size (oval): approx. 5.5 cm wide
• Total weight: 31.7 g
• Technique: repoussé relief, hollowed handle

The glass was probably replaced over time, which is common for carrying objects of this kind.

The condition is good with age-appropriate signs of use and beautiful patina.

A decorative collectible from the turn of the century, ideal for Art Nouveau enthusiasts or as an addition to a historic vanity set.
