Offered here from the dougfinds collection of
curated fashion, accessories, clothing, collectibles, and unique gifts is this lovely vintage Wallace
Baroque silverplate tabletop vanity mirror.
A wonderfully ornate
decorative piece from Wallace, this oval freestanding mirror features
the company's Baroque pattern, identified by the raised “Baroque /
WALLACE” mark on the reverse.
The frame is richly
sculpted with deep scrolling foliage, floral ornamentation and dramatic
Baroque/Rococo-inspired curves, extending into decorative feet at the base.
An attached rear easel allows the mirror to stand independently on a vanity,
dresser, dressing table or display shelf.
The aged silverplate is
especially attractive, with darker patina settled naturally into the recessed
ornamentation and warmer tones appearing throughout the relief. The result
gives the elaborate design considerably more visual depth than a uniformly bright
polished surface.
Approximate dimensions:
8" tall × 5" wide
CONDITION
The ornate silverplate
frame shows tarnish, oxidation, finish variation and age-related surface
wear, particularly within the recessed decoration and around portions of
the reverse perimeter. These characteristics have been intentionally left
intact rather than aggressively polished.
The mirror glass remains
intact and usable but shows visible age-related spotting/speckling and
surface wear. Rear easel stand and mirror-retaining hardware are present
and functional.
No cracks or major breaks
to the decorative frame.
Please review all
photographs carefully, as they are considered part of the description and
provide the best representation of this item's condition.
