Can you imagine being able to look at this mirror every day? This is spectacular asymmetrical modernist stepped mirror. hand carried all the way from France. The nickel plated stepped metal and base speaks of the great French designers of Art Deco. I have no idea who designed it, but it obviously was not some mass-produced vanity mirror.
