This beautiful antique trumeau mirror has been previously owned and loved, and shows some wear consistent with this prior use. There are areas of chipping and age appropriate wear on the frame, especially around the edges and corners that has happened over time. The gilt patina has different grades of coloration and there is some silvering on mirror that is age appropriate. There are small pieces of the wooden frame that are missing.
