Convex Deer Mounted Mirror

American classical convex mirror, attributed to Isaac L. Platt, circa 1820. Surmounted with deer on a cluster of rocks, surrounded by branches of acorns and oak leaves. The lower half of the mirror is adorned with a shell and acanthus leaves. Mirror retains original convex mirror plate with gray boulle and is encased in a ebonized liner. Mirror shows evidence of once having four candle arms.
