I am in my "get organized" mode, so pulling all sorts of things out of storage. This 19th century mirror is not meant for practical use, but for the way they bounced light around the Victorian interior. I have seen other, including some wonderful ones at the Museum of the City of New York. These must have been interesting wall decor in their day.
This one was put away until I could work on some minor restoration, but since it was not too disfiguring, it will probably remain as is for a while longer.
Also of interest was the original label still on the back, from a firm in Boston, Noyes & Blakeslee.
