Plusieurs femmes de la famille Gramont portaient le nom Corisande en 1892. Il semble néanmoins s'agir de Corisande de Gramont, duchesse de Noailles (1880-1977).
Condition
Illustration is accurate.
Please note the glass and the frame are associated; the frame was probably a mount on a piece of furniture at the origin.
Gilding has been carefully cleaned up and possibly slightly retouched in places.
A little wear on the inner rim, as visible on the image.
Very charming mirror with a beautiful chasing.
