Dear Nido,
Thank you for contacting Mearto with your appraisal inquiry. So that I may best assist you, can you please upload a few better images of the reverse side.
With kind regards,
Georg
Dear Nido,
Thank you for the additional images. The presented image is a framed mirror produced for the East Indian Company. The framed mirror has a plain mirror and a convex shaped mirror in the middle. The glass of the plain mirror was laminated with a silver foil which is nowadays mostly corroded and changed the color. The mirror has the date 1839 and names the East India Company. It was probably produced for export.
The mirror is in a damaged condition.
An estimation would be between 50 to 100 USD.
This estimation is based on actual recent past recorded auction sales of comparables. Retail "asking prices" can be higher and vary.
With best regards,
Georg
