The mirror back has a small herringbone pattern. Camouflaged in the pattern is the maker's mark. There are several figures in the mark, one of which is the lion passant, an English mark indicating sterling silver.

The mirror is 10 1/8 inch long and at its widest point is 3 5/8 inch. The mirror gives a sharp image with no distortion. Upon close inspection, small specks reveal an aging process to the mirror. There is a spot for engraving on the back in the center but that was never done.
