AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Item Description:
Enchanting vintage oval mirror, an authentic piece of mid-20th-century craftsmanship and design (presumably from the 1920s or 1930s), combining the functionality of a mirror with refined decorative aesthetics. This piece is perfect for enhancing any space, from classic to contemporary, adding a touch of elegance and history.
Main Features:
Distinctive Design: The mirror stands out for its oval shape and rich gilded brass frame, which evokes the pomp of the Regency style or a lightened Baroque, much appreciated in past eras.
Premium Materials: The frame and all its intricate decorations are crafted from solid brass, ensuring durability, considerable weight, and a shine that only brass can offer.
Artisan Details:
Crown/Shell Motif: The upper part of the frame is embellished with an elegant motif in the shape of a crown or stylized shell, which enhances its decorative character.
Elaborate Suspension: The mirror is suspended by a double braided cord, also in brass or with a gold finish, attached to an elegant bow/medallion pendant that adds an additional element of quality.
Key Charms: Two delicate key charms hang on the sides of the frame, a charming detail that adds to its vintage charm and originality.
Sturdy Construction: The back of the mirror is closed with a cork panel, typical of period production, which protects the mirror and ensures its stability.
Versatility: Ideal for an entryway, living room, bedroom, or bathroom, this mirror is not only a functional object but also a truly eye-catching decorative work of art. No modifications, completely original.
