Small Make-Do Courting Mirror
Small Make-Do Courting Mirror
$395.00Price
Very early glass. mirror in a mitered and molded frame with a heart crest.
My feeling about this mirror is that a scrap of a broken larger mirror was used to make this, forming a "courting Mirror" - hung near the door to be used just before seeing the gentleman.
The lovely heart crest has one broken wing - broken a long time ago.
Very sturdy, lovely frame, Small square brads, old hanging ring.
Original brick red paint
6 1/2" x 12"
Find in New Hampshire and dating from the late 19th-early 20th century
