Worked in copper rather than silver, this hanging mirror shows Spratling's workshop reaching beyond its signature metal into the broader range of decorative objects it produced. Copper gave him a warmer, more affordable medium for wall and table pieces, and a mirror frame was the kind of household object the shop made alongside its silver.
The piece is recorded in Phyllis M. Goddard's Spratling Silver: A Field Guide. Copper objects are a less common part of the workshop's output and are seen only occasionally.
