An authentic Edwardian era tabletop dressing mirror in solid oak, circa 1900–1915, with a hand-carved scrolling frieze to the crest, turned uprights and brass side screws that allow the plate to tilt smoothly. The timber has a warm, time-earned colour and lively grain that sits squarely in the British Arts & Crafts tradition where honest materials and simple craft were prized.
The original rectangular mirror plate remains in place and shows attractive foxing and age bloom, most visible as a small patch low centre, which reads as genuine antique character rather than a defect and softens reflections beautifully. The stand is sturdy with shaped feet and a full width stretcher, the tilting mechanism holds position well, and all components feel reassuringly substantial.
This is the right size and presence for a bedroom dressing table, a hallway console for last-minute checks, or a bathroom or cloakroom with good ventilation. It w
...orks equally well as a shop or studio prop, for wedding styling, or as a reflective accent on a sideboard to bounce candlelight. The carved top adds a decorative note that mixes easily with period oak, cottage, rustic farmhouse, Arts & Crafts and eclectic interiors.
Condition is sound and fully usable with the honest patina expected of a century-old piece. I would consider it very well preserved, with minor marks commensurate with age.
A practical antique with real history, made in Britain from solid oak and detailed by hand, ready to add warmth, texture and everyday usefulness to your home.
