    I found this reverse glass painting at a local thrift store for five bucks :). I don't know if it is antique or not...not really sure how to tell. The detail is beautiful. It caught my eye immediately. I had never heard of a reverse painting but I could tell by looking at it something was different. If anyone knows about the history of them. especially how to tell it's age, I would appreciate the information. Sorry for the glare on the photos...just had to share my little fab-find.

    I see some like yours online for a couple 100 dollars. Looks like from the 1919 the century and Chinese!
