Art Nouveau Style Oval Beveled Mirror with Brass Clasps

This item is a medium-sized oval-shaped wall mirror featuring an elegant, frameless design held by decorative metal hardware. The mirror glass is clear with a distinct beveled edge, which adds depth and helps refract light at the perimeter. It is secured at the top and bottom by two cast brass or bronze clasps. These metal elements exhibit characteristic Art Nouveau organic flourishes, with symmetrical swirling or 'whiplash' patterns that suggest a manufacturing date in the early 20th century (circa 1900-1920) or a high-quality mid-century revival. The metal has a dull, aged gold patina with darker oxidation visible in the recessed areas of the casting, indicating authentic age. The glass appears to be in good vintage condition without visible desilvering or significant scratching. Its shape and the style of the mounting hardware suggest it may have originally been part of a vanity set or a 'psyché' dressing table mirror, though it is currently shown leaned against a wooden furniture piece. The craftsmanship is evident in the precision of the beveling and the intricate detail of the cast metal mounts.
