Late 1800's Italian Table Mirror by Fontana & C. Milano Workshop with Rounded Shape and Beveled Edge
An extremely rare late 19th-century Italian table mirror by Fontana & C. Milano, featuring a beveled glass frame secured with metal clasps. The antique glass gives the mirror an extra special sparkly appearance. The mirror displays subtle signs of age, particularly around the clasps along its edges. A solid wooden backing and brass easel stand support the mirror for tabletop display. The reverse retains the Fontana & C. Milano maker’s stamp alongside a sweet handwritten Italian inscription commemorating a couple’s wedding trip, evidencing that this mirror had been a wedding gift. The inscription reads “A memento of the honeymoon of Giuseppe and Mariuccia Jacona, May–June 1894.”
Mirror: 8" High x 7"Depth Standing Height: 7" High
