Condition
Overall in very good condition. With one minor recent sensitive repair to the gilt decorative portion, which was executed by a professional restorer and is not visible on inspection. The gilt surfaces with possibly cleaning at some point in the pieces history. To the reverse of the mirror, there is a foil label as well as an older paper label. Both appear original to the work. This is a small scale gem showing the intricacy of the design that characterizes the work of Peche.
