AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Two splendid Art Nouveau hand mirrors, made of brass and featuring a stylized decoration of an elegant lady. The design is characteristic of the Jugendstil period with flowing lines and floral accents.
It shows a detailed relief of a nymph or lady surrounded by floral motifs (such as water lilies and bulrushes) on the reverse.
The mirror glass of the left-hand mirror has a small chip in the glass as clearly shown in the photos. This chip sits mostly behind the frame and is barely visible. Both hand mirrors have the original mirror glass.
