AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

This rare antique silver wall mirror with an Ottoman coat of arms design showcases exquisite craftsmanship and historical significance with its oval shape. Plated in 990 sterling silver, which I estimate to be of higher purity than sterling silver based on similar markings online and scratch tests, this piece is adorned with the tughra (imperial monogram) of Sultan Abdul Hamid II of the late 19th century. The mirror's unique style and white metal construction reflect the artistic beauty and cultural heritage of the Ottoman Empire, making it a unique and valuable addition to any antique collection.
