This is a stunningly good looking mirror which needs very sturdy brick walls to hang it on. It is very heavy. A new build with plaster board walls would not be suitable. There is a join or crack (whatever you want to call it), as shown with finger. It is hardly noticeable because of the veins in the marble, I’m not sure if part of it’s construction as I can’t see how it could have been part of damage as it’s so neat! Parcel Force, Triple boxed. I will deliver if near Guildford. It would make a lousy jigsaw! It’s early, not a Philips screw in sight! The wooden edging could be re gilded to really lift it to another level!
