Tri fold vanity mirror
« on: March 09, 2013, 12:39:37 pm »
Another treasure! To me at least. I found this mirror in the bottom of a box. Each of the three mirrors measures 9x7 and is beveled. One of the three has just a slight amount of a silvering issue. It has what I think is tooled leather on the back of each mirror in really good condition. The hinges are in good working order and move freely. How old and value please. I'm trying to make a list of all for insurance reasons. Thanks

Looks like a gentlemans travel/shaving mirror !! The eye`s and chain at the top are so it could be hung or removed and folded for travel !! Small feet on bottom for using on a tabletop !!

Looks like early 20th century,  worth about $50-$75 or so, depending on where you are.
