The unusual decorative treatment of this mirror, with its distinctive zig-zag patterns with bands of grape leaf on black and peonies on gold grounds, is exemplary of the lacquerware made in Canton for the export market between 1785 - 1820, closely following European designs (C. Crossman, The Decorative Arts of the China Trade, Woodbridge, 1991, pp. 264-266).
