The back of the hand mirror is very unusual because it has a large medallion of amethyst purple guilloche enamel. I have seen this style used by E & JB in two other colors: emerald green and sapphire blue, but I find that the blue is the most striking color.

The mirror is stamped "E&JB" on the edge of the mirror, near the handle. This is from the E & J Bass Empire Art Gold line. The handle is made up of a soft white metal and is weak.
