F & B Sterling Guilloche Enamel Mirror

Collectibles : Vanity Items : Enamel

 

This F & B (Foster & Bailey) mirror is 11 1/2" long x 6" wide. It is a lovely almost medium rosie pink. Look at the additional pizazz of the engine turn (machined into sterling under enamel) pattern at where the handle meets mirror & tip of handle. Enamel is in excellent condition w/ some of that surface only scratching that comes from antique used enamel. Has NO chips/cracks/restoration.The sterling is in excellent condition w/no rips/holes. it does have a 3/8" long abrasion to the smooth sterling backside of handle normal from rubbing on a vanity table. The mirror is original beveled. Mirror is well seated-has no rattle. It is still some what usable but has well defined circular spots & swirled areas of discoloration normal from age. I think it would be better as a decorator piece laid on a counter or vanity. Or you could do what one of our Houston customers did. She bought 5 mirrors from us over 5 shows and hung them on the wall shaping them in a fan. Tip of handle have marks of:Sterling & the F & B hallmark (hallmark faint but there). Circa 1925.
