    Hi again :)!

    I got this mirrors in an antique store in Athens, Greece. Investigating I have seen that they are wedding mirrors but I am not sure if they are antique or not. Also they don't seem made of silver. Any idea?

    Thank you again!

      Yes, these are Turkish wedding mirrors. Normally, these are .900 silver. There should be a maker's stamp hidden within the design. See the photos on the Ruby Lane website below.
      You can take also them to the jeweler and have the metal tested.

      Thank you Efesgirl :) Yes I found those pics but I was not sure if mine were simply a copy or they were antique. I'll try to take them to a jeweler. Thank you!
