Quicksilver mirrors, like this one, have a rich history dating back to the 17th and 18th centuries. This technique was mainly used in Europe, with France and Italy known for their sophisticated production of high-quality mirrors. Judging by the style of the frame and the materials used, this mirror could probably be of French origin.
Possibly dates from the period of the late 1800s. This was a time when antique furniture often showed a combination of craft refinement and functional designs. The wooden frame, probably made of walnut or a similar type of wood, adds to this suspicion.
The original mercury silver finish (a method that was replaced by more modern techniques in the late 19th century) indicates that this is a truly authentic piece and not a modern reproduction. As such, this mirror carries not only aesthetic value but also historical significance.
