nicely made

with some wear and aging to both the mirror and the wood as accurately documented in photos

I have to think this once held something very precious

Antique Two-toned Horsehair Brush with Turned Handle Wrico nicely madeAnother pretty antique brush, this one unusual for its combination of longer black horsehair bristles surrounded by tapered shorter blonde ones. The nicely shaped, reddish stained turned wooden handle features a hole near the end for easy hanging. Late 19th century or so I believe. Good overall condition, with a little bristle loss, a fair amount of wear to the wood, and a little cracking (perhaps a repair, but I'm not sure) to the wood on the handle
