    This mirror is marked Tekce 900. I have not been able to locate this mark anywhere. Here I go again. I am not able to determine if this is sterling or not. Please any help would be appreciated........

      This is typically known as a "Turkish Wedding Mirror". Not quite sterling (925) but close at 900/1000 purity of silver. The maker mark Tekce is really of no importance as they are any one of hundreds that make these. So my answer is... 20th Century solid silver mirror made in Turkey.
