AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Ornate frame with relief motifs, probably dating from the late 19th or early 20th century. A very old hand mirror, missing the glass. Made of brass with tangible signs of wear. Of French origin. A screw is missing at the back, some visible flaws, and you can see signs of oxidation on it. I haven't cleaned it to show clearly to all of you what it looks like. Anyway, a piece of history.
