This mirror Belonged to my now deceased girlfriend. The brass border was painted over a dark black.now I know why. Several days ago a friend took pics as I was going to sell it. He zoomed in on the pics many dozens of people,aliens,and demons! After seeing that refused to have anything to do with it. It's one of a kind,but I assume no responsibility from anything that means that might happen to you or yours. I don't know anything about it,how old, where it was made,etc.
