Mirror Case

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

The Mirror Case by Unidentified Artist shows a black-and-white photo of a mirror case with a tassel. The case is round with an etched floral design on the outside. The design includes flowers and leaves. There is a rope-like design along the inside of the case's scalloped edge. A long cord loops through two metal tubes on the left side of the image. The tubes are connected to a long dark tassel that hangs down. The cord extends from the tubes to the right and loops back on itself.
