I have started a “collection “; I am collecting handheld bathroom mirrors from the nineteen fifties, or older. So far, I have purchased three; let me see if I have photos.
This mirror has four layers of silver, is quite heavy, and is from the late eighteen hundreds, very early nineteen hundreds. The patina is beautiful, though, I would love to see how it would shine if polished. No, I will not polish it, and ruin the value. It is lovely as it is. I am proud to own it.
This one is from late nineteen hundred ten to the early twenties, I am told. Both of the mirrors themselves, are very well maintained with little, or no, defects. When the third mirror gets here, from the States, I will show that to you as well. If anyone has a vintage/antique handheld mirror, in good condition, please contact me.
Until that day, please, stay vigilant. But, also, stay happy, stay healthy, stay safe. Wash your hands, cover your mouth, and protect your loved ones.
