mantel/fireplace surround with mirror and side shelves

By jb1, 5 November, 2007
Description

 

 Looks to me like it may have had some possibly serious repair work done.  mirror possibly replaced.  The work is more obvious from the back.  Really, it looks pretty good, but it wouldn't stand up to serious scrutiny I don't think.Both the mirror and the little lip above the mirror lift off.  I really know nothing about the piece...other than it doesn't really fit my decor. I don't believe it's as old as the sellers would have me believe it is.   Would like to know a little more about it.

Any info appreciated.
