Estimate £1,000-1,500

Overall in honest original condition, with some small areas of damage, most notably the head of the ho-ho bird on the right which is missing, tip of the beak to the main bird at the top and tip of foliate scroll on the top right side, but otherwise mirror is intact, old gilt finish now looking rather matted, plate looks to be the original and is heavily oxidised, no labels verso, overall a good piece.
