Antique adjustable counter top mirror with cast iron base?

I purchased this recently and have been searching the web for something like it with no luck. Total height is 13 1/2 inches, metal mirror frame measures 8 1/2 X 6 in. Post is nickel plated as well as thumb screw and other hardware. Seems to have a medical vibe or possibly scientific? Dental? Jewelry store counter top? From 1900 or so?

Any info would be greatly appreciated!

 

More like 1950 imo. Nice design.

 

Yep,like AJ says,Post-War to MCM- does have a Med vibe though-any maker's marks ?

 

Definitely not an antique yet.

 

No makers marks may have had a decal that is long gone. IMO the slotted screws and nickel plating dates it back to at least the 1940s but IDK?

 

Still wouldn't be antique, needs to be 100 years old for that

 

Yes, understood and my mistake for using the Antique label. I'm good with Vintage or MMC.

 

You wondered if it was ca 1900, and if it had been, it would have been antique.

 

This came out of a room where there was a ton of vintage photography equipment. Developers, light boxes, enlargers, mostly Kodak stuff

 

no worries.....that happens here a lot !!

like the Harmon - kardon....

 

The way it pans or is adjustable from side to side and up and down...maybe some sort of photography light refraction/reflecting mirror?

 

maybe just a piece in the wrong place ...?

 

Thanks the HK is a bit of a project at this point. Makes LPs sound like Alvin and the Chipmonks every once in a while. LOL

 

you'll get there.......it's a quality machine !!!
