Exceptional pair of brass mirrors by "Siegel" of Paris, 19 Rue Reaumup PARIS.The solid brass supports are each impressed 'Siegel Paris'. The mirror plate is original and bevelled, rotating and double sided. The mirrors have been together for so long I cant bear to split them up so they are sold as a pair. Wouldn't they look fabulous in a double sinked bathroom! Have quite a weight to them!
