Condition report:

The mirror plate appears in good condition with no visible foxing or blooming. The frame shows minor wear to the painted finish, including small scuffs and darkened areas consistent with a distressed decorative treatment. There are small chips visible on the edges of the lower foliate carvings (photo 1). Light surface dust is present on the base plinth.
