It was listed by Antique Furniture Direct. Sold pieces stay on Sellingantiques as a record of what has passed through, and the next one is rarely far away.
Antique Furniture Direct has dated this piece to the 18th Century.
It’s a pretty mid-eighteenth century example with attractive patina dating from circa 1750.
The label to the back is difficult to decipher, however we think it says:
“Bought from Sir Richard Brocas Lord Mayor of London. Sale at Gloucester Gate London W”
Sir Richard Brocas was Lord mayor of London in 1729, which could tie in with the date of the mirror if it was purchased at his estate sale.
