Vintage Federal Eagle Convex Mirror - Wooden Frame W/ Gold Gilded Frame
Item History & Price
Vintage Federal Eagle Convex Mirror
Early federal convex mirrors made their way into the homes of the American elite and wealthy. The convex shape of these mirrors helped to illuminate the room when accompanied by candles.
Overall this selection is in excellent condition with only a few signs of wear, as to be expected with items of this age. Constructed of both wood and gesso, so not to be confused with those made in the 70's with plastic. Best I can estimate..., this selection appears to be from pre-1950's ( I welcome conversation). There are a few locations were the gilding has been chipped. This mirror depicts a bald eagle and olive branches on top and is accompanied by the 13 ball representing the original 13 colonies of United States of America. One of the nicest styled mirrors like this I have seen. Please view all photos before buying.
Dimensions:Frame: 15" wide x 23" high. Convex mirror diameter is 11-1/8".
I take extreme care when packaging so to ensure safe delivery.
The final package weight will be 8 lbs. in a 30x5x24 box.
I welcome questions, so please do not hesitate to send me a message.
