The reverse of the metal frames are stamped MADE IN ENGLAND.

Condition report:

Both mirror plates show signs of age including visible spotting, foxing, and minor silvering loss, particularly near the edges. The ceramic borders exhibit overall glaze crazing consistent with age. The cast metal frames show a vintage patina and light surface wear but remain structurally sound.
