Condition

Overall in very good condition. The front glass tiles present with a few very small and stable hairline cracks, which are not visually distracting and frequent in Line Vautrin mirrors. The mirrored glass is original and in excellent condition. Please note that the mirror's slightly convex contour is inherent to production and representative of the artist's technique.
