Description from the seller

Art Nouveau hand mirror made of 900 silver – circa 1900 – floral repoussé

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

The back features a three-dimensionally repoussé floral decoration with sweeping leaf and blossom motifs in the typically organic language of form from 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.”
• Period: Art Nouveau (circa 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 presumably replaced over time, which is common for everyday objects of this kind.

The condition is good with age-related signs of wear and beautiful patina.

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