Price: 275

Sold by West Pelham Antiques

A pair of early 19th century (c. 1800 or a bit earlier) Battersea Enamel Mirror Supports (or posts), used to provide support for mirrors hung on the wall. Both show a similar (as similar as 2 hand-painted scenes can be) view of 2 large buildings in the countryside. The enamels are framed in a brass? (not magnetic) round frame and retain their original “screw into the wall” posts. Each framed image is 1 5/8” in diameter and the posts are 2 1/8” long. Very fine condition with no breaks or cracks and the posts are securely soldered to the round frames.
