    Okay. I was given this mirror by someone who acquired it from an estate sale 20 years ago. Its made of what i I think is worm wood and the metal spindles are brass looking. the glass is sooooo thin that objects held against it appear to be touching. The glass however is practically turning black from something behind it. there were originally two more little shelves above the two that are currently on there but they are gone. Looks liken hing on a wall. I assume the little shelves were for candles or something. The last picture shows the only obvious marking which is an engraving MADE IN ITALY. I cannot find anything like it online searching images. Does anybody know anything about when this as made or what it is called. Im not really sure what to do with it. Thanks. Scott!

      The black is from the silvering on the back coming off. Very nice!
