Eglomise gilded reverse mirrors
12 June 2018
Description

3 mirrors / Dimensions are 44” by 22(Each mirror) Not really sure if it’s Japanese or Chinese calligraphy on each mirror. Bought them at estate sale. Mirrors themselves are mint.. brass frames are in good shape. Couple of them have a small mark or two on them. Overall beautiful. I know eglomise is a French process. Hoping someone could shed some light on these. I want to sell them. Thank you

What does this mean?

Thank you for submitting your item for appraisal. This appears to be a set of three mirrors in a western japonism style, manufactured by or for "reliable MFG co." in Union, New Jersey which also sold a line of "op art" mirrors under the brand name " a Sharon Art concept" in the late 1960s. The inscription imitates chinese characters, so does the round seal. The "characters" are purely decorative, there is no meaning to it. The estimate is based on similar offered or sold at auction.
