Antique Porcelain Table Top Travel Mirror Cherubs Meissen Marked 18th Century

Description: this is a beautiful antique mirror. i believe this mirror is for traveling because it's not very big. it does have condition problems so let me just walk through with what is see. the mirror is a replacement the original was probably beveled. there is a crack on the side. the angel on the right has a chipped wing, and the other wing on the back is completely gone, but it still has a lot of it's wing so it looks pretty good from the front. the angel on the left has a wing chipped in the back, and has a missing foot. because of the way the leg is positioned it doesn't look to bad just like it's tucked behind or something. the angels are holding a branch or something that is painted blue. there is a blue and white design going around the mirror, and a blue bow at the bottom. the ceramic feet in front were gold, but has mostly rubbed off. these ceramic feet are into the wood backing held in by a wire or nail. there are 6 screws on the back 2 on the hinge which are slotted flat head i believe those 2 are original. the rest are button head, and phillips which aren't old. over all i believe this item looks pretty good as is. i have taken photos so you can see all that i mentioned. the item is marked at the top i believe the mark is one or the earliest from 1720, so the item is very old. size 6.5 inches tall, and 4.5 inches wide. the mirror is about 4 x 3 inches. this is a great old item to add to your collection. Please keep in mind that most items I sell are old and vintage so there may be some things like odors, or light soiling that might be on the item (mostly cloth and paper items). i do try to point out problems that i notice, but please ask questions before you purchase something if this is a concern to you an I will personally check on an item for you. I don't smoke, or have any pets, so there usually won't be those type of odors with the items i sell. I offer no returns so please use your very best judgement when bidding on this item :D buy more and save just mail the items you are interested in. i will mail you back a better price, and combine shipping for a lower price, or maybe even free shipping. it really depends on if i can fit all the items you want into the same box :) check out the weekly sale event 50 + different items every week starting on friday just click on my store, sales, and then see all. Please, make payment by Paypal in a timely manner, or an automatic non-payment case is opened by Ebay after so many days. if Ebay closes the case because you didn't pay, an I didn't get one email from you explaining your side of the situation, then I'm sorry to report you will be blocked from all my listings :( Shipping - items paid for on friday will not be shipped until monday or tuesday. the price of shipping is based on the weight and sometimes supplies. i never charge handling fees i make enough money from the actual items that i sell, there is no need for any extra charges. all items are dropped off by me at the post office. i'm not in control of post office, or how fast they deliver something. what i am in control of is making sure your item goes out within 3 working days, which means weekends and holidays are excluded from that from that 3 day window; i usually don't post feedback immediately after a sale. i know it's important, and very rare i don't leave feedback for a customer. just be patient you'll get it :) below are key words and policies of descriptions. band new items still in the package and never opened are listed as used. i usually don't sell brand new items you can go and buy at the store today, but if i do they will also be listed as used. in the description i will type new or like new condition. all problems like chips, cracks, manufacturing flaws, and repairs will be listed in the description if it isn't, then there aren't any. i do look the items over before i ship, so i can inform the customer that maybe i missed something. or something happened to the item after the listing was made. some of my listings are very old, which means i've had the item for awhile, and they may have gotten dinged while being stored (very rare). usually in a case like that i will offer a discount to you before i ship the item, or i will cancel the sale. it's important for you to look over all the photos, and read the description. i use inches when sizing up items. it may not be exact, but it will be close to the number in the description. some items like clocks, and watches are sold as is. which means you are buying the item with no returns. but don't be scared because i am fair and if something is wrong that wasn't in the description i may let you return it. just communicate with me your concerns. if you get your item and i did missed something like a chip, and it isn't in the photos, or description. i'm more than willing to give a small discount, or let you return the item with me paying for the return shipping. just let me know and i'll let you know how i want to handle it. i do base prices on condition and rarity of items, and sometimes the price would have been the same even with a little ding (most of the time i will give some kind of pricing discount). sometimes items are bought as gifts, or you like things perfect in your collection and a discount won't do. i have no problem with returns under those circumstances just mail me with a photo or two explaining the problems with the item. i ship a lot of glass and breakable items. i do my absolute best to get that type of item to you in one piece. i have bought things that have arrived broken, and know it's very disappointing. if i know or have an idea of the year i will post it in the listing, but here are some key words i usually use: old = 50s - 80svintage = 90s - present antique = things that are close to or over 100 years (up to 1940s) sometimes i use words like art deco, art nouveau, or mid century those are just a style, or era. most of the time it will be from that era. bottom line i sell collectible items that many people want. what i want from you is for you to be happy with your purchase. don't get mad just communicate and we will come to a fair agreement :)
