Description

A round bronze mirror of silvery color with "lion and grape" decoration. The rim is sharply inward slanting from high outer edge. The narrow rim band consists of raised trefoil patterns that represent clouds. Within the rim band is a wider band with decoration of birds, insects, and grapes on both sides in rounded relief. A raised and rounded circle encloses the centre, which contains a knob in crouching leonine creatures and surrounding decoration in high relief of four lions with faces turning towards the air and tufted tails, four birds and ten bunches of grapes with leaves and vine. The decoration and silvery color are partly obscured by think green encrustation. The outer portion of the reflecting side is silvery while other areas have green corrosion product and one tiny rough spot.
