    Apart from being fairly sure this hails from the 19th century, I know nothing about this hand mirror. Can anyone tell me anything more based on the design, decoration and shape? Many thanks!

    Thanks. I did resize the photos as medium and emailed to myself. They seem to be a reasonable size and definition when you open them here, no?

    Looks pre-World War II 20th century to my eye. Part of a set, of course.

    Post WWII, typically advertised as 'jeweler's bronze', popular into the 1960s (can post ads for similar in a bit)...
