    It's pretty and looks very old. I think it looks like brass or bronze, not copper, but wait for others more knowledgeable to have a look.

    The front doesn't look copper at all, but this exposed part of the handle on the back does look a tarnished copper color, but I am imagining it is old glue or some other kind of coating.

    I should stop imagining and ask you exactly what it is, lol.

    OK Mr. King Crimson:

    This looks like a bronze Art Nouveau-era item with a beveled mirror ca. 1910. Is it heavy? Heavy as “21st Century Schizoid Man?”
    Anyway, it’s a very nice piece. Congratulations!
