Georgian Mahogany Toilet / Dressing Mirror, c.1800 (George III)
 
A fine George III period mahogany toilet or dressing mirror, dating to around 1800. The solid mahogany frame features brass swing-lock knobs, allowing the original oblong mirror plate to tilt and lock securely in position. The mirror is set within a cushion-moulded mahogany frame, with a wood-panelled back.
 
An attractive and original tabletop vanity mirror, in very good condition. The plate retains a light and pleasing foxing — still perfectly usable while displaying its age and authenticity. A well-presented and highly decorative piece, ready for use.
