DescriptionThis handheld mirror has a black casing for the oval shaped glass mirror. The thick black casing is rectangular around the oval mirror and has a long thin handle for holding. The edge around where the glass and the backing meet has been heavily worn. There is a piece that has been chipped of from the backing and now reveals a pale tan wood underneath. The backside of mirror has two thin white vertical lines on either side running vertical towards the handle. Between these two lines, at the center of the back are two white symbols that look like elongated, angular "U"s with the openings facing each other. The backside also has chips and dents.On View
