This is an antique wooden mirror with a raised floral scroll effect.
The antique photograph (which is painted on and signed by the artist) was discovered in back of the mirror recently. The photograph is on a material similar to matboard. There is an artist's signature on the photograph. It says G.A. and we cannot make out the last name..
The size of the mirror's outer perimeter is approximately 12 1/2 inches x 14 1/2 inches.
The mirror itself is in good condition though when taking photographs the shiny mirror part did not show up.
We have had this mirror for a number of years and it is one of the last pieces that were a part of a huge load of antiques that we purchased in northern Arizona.
It was previously owned by a pianist who had a number of auction pieces.
