A William III walnut cushion framed wall mirror, circa 1695

A William III walnut cushion framed wall mirror, circa 1695, the rectangular plate within a moulded frame, 66cm high, 50cm wide

Condition Report:
Marks, scratches and abrasions comensurate with age and use. old splits as expected for age. some minor division at corner joints due to minor warping/ movement. The mirror plate has significant age and bears expected depletion but may not be original. (see images) There are a relatively small number of scratches of loss to the silvering from the reverse that appear black in colour. The rear panel appears original. There is a later panel between the back of the mirror plate and the rear panel . As often seen with mirrors of this age and type, there are twin apertures to the reverse of the mirror where a surmount would have been secured. This is now lacking. Some old worm damage, mainly only visible to the reverse and the rear panel and not causing noticeable fragmentary loss. Some later screwed in fixtures to the reverse for hanging. This mirror is a very good example of its type and is in original condition.
