Mirror with Clouds and Nebulae
A round bronze mirror back with a scalloped outer edge, concentric rings of raised knobs, and a twisted-rope border framing a central boss surrounded by scrolling petal-like forms. Green patina marks the metal, set against a dark gray backdrop.
Look closer: A faint radial line runs across the rim near the top edge.
