Hallmarked Sterling Silver Brush and
Mirror...CORONATION QEII
Item number: 16120043
Price: $275
This is a stunning STERLING SILVER (not plated) mirror and brush set. I
believe from the hallmark that it is made in 1953, or so, commemorating
the coronation of Queen Elizabeth II. I bought it off someone who
thought it was 1851, and the date does look like 1775, as it has a duty
mark, BUT I think it is 1953, when a crowned Queen was added as a fifth
mark in addition to the others standard 4 sterling silver marks. The
mirror measures 30.5 cms long....over one foot. The mirror is chipped
but this is under the surface in one corner and no glass has been lost.
The silvering on the mirror is in excellent condition with a bevelled
edge.
