[QUOTE="journeymagazine, post: 4422939, member: 84"]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.
