Any info on large, hand carved(?) ornate mirror - Thai? Oriental?

I found this today at my local thrift store; I didn't know anything about it except it was cool! Is it worth the $100 I paid for it?
Where is it from?
Is this a antique?
The gilded (? gold?) paint actually seems to change when in sun from when in the shade?
Any information/thoughts would be greatly appreciated - I'm hoping it's going to be like the Eames chair & sell in a day!
PS - I am trying to expand & buy less paintings!
Thank you!

 

Inside the house - the color changes/looks different?

 

Looks thoroughly European to me, and from the back a molded material, so not very old.

 

I can't help at all but I just have to say - wow - that is a lot of foo-foo for one mirror!!!!!

 

Why do you think it might be Thai or other "oriental" origin?

 

Looks more "classical" to me.

 

(sorry, but you cracked me up!!!)

 

It's made of wood

 

Is the mirror beveled?

I was thinking European or Oriental....fancy enough for either IMHO.....

 

I don't see any joins. Ornate picture and mirror frames were made of a wood composite in the '70s and '80s.

Companies like Syroco and Durwood did similar even earlier.

 

I guess I thought oriental because of the black on the back & that it's not as heavy as you think - I've had lighter weight wood pieces with the black back - but I can't remember what it was, I'm sorry

When I list this what should I call it - Classical wall mirror? Ornate European hallway mirror?
ps - Looked at back & there are small holes in it - could it be wormwood, or is it from a mold injection? (See 2md photo with the small chip - it looks like wood?)
+ you can see red behind the gold paint in spots; which I think I've seen in some oriental pieces before?
Also some pics of it inside house; it looks better to me here than in the direct sun, but there's so much stuff around it that I haven't listed yet that it takes away from it somewhat.
Final question - which photos should I use for the ad when I sell this (eBay, FB marketplace, etc..)?
Thank you guys for all your help.

 

No it's not beveled Debora.
What would you call it?

 

A flat mirror. Beveling often indicates age/quality.

No what would you call the mirror itself if you were selling it - for a title?
PS - the mirror measures 52"H x 26"W x 3"D.

 

Try "pier mirror."

Definitely not wood. Have seen mirrors made of a dense almost styrofoam type material (Not as dense as regular resin). I think that is what you have here.

 

The fact that it is not wood might appeal to a buyer because it would be lighter & therefore not so much a PITA to hang.
