1930's Flapper & Parrot Silhouette Mirror

Collectibles : Art Deco

 

If you can see yourself with a Flapper and a Parrot, then chances are you're the proud owner of this great mirror! Coming to you all the way from 1933 is this fab Art Deco mirror, featuring an elegant lady feeding her Parrot in silhouette at the top. The mirror is long and lean, measuring 16" x 5", and is surrounded by a silver wood frame with black accenting. The silhouette is backed with semi-reflective silver paper, which has a curtain and rail drawn on it. The black lines you see in the mirror are actually there and not a reflection, indicative of its age. The back is finished in cardboard, some of which is held on by nails, while the top is stapled. The silhouette is titled "Fine Birds" and is dated May 16, 1933 on the back. Aside from the loss of silver (aka black lines) the mirror and frame are in good condition, especially for their 70+ years! Rather rare and oh-sooooo-Deco, you'll love it!
