This mirror was in my now 116yr old house when I bought it almost 15 years ago. (Along with some pretty hideous wallpaper.) It has been moving around the house in those years and it is time for it to finally make an exit. I have no idea if it has any value.

This one is asking $320. www.ebay.com/
Neat-o item! Classic Hollywood Regency style. Lots and lots and lots of these were sold in the 50s through 1970s, which were I am makes these literally a dime a dozen. Nearly yard sale and flea market in Pittsburgh has one like this for sale.
I did some looking at some of my sources from around the country and this particular style--most are sitting unsold from $10-50, and when they are selling they are fetching in the low end of the range from $10-20.
There were some much fancier Bassets with beveled glass and art deco styling that fetch more in the market, but those are much more rare and hard to find in the marketplace.
The basic ones like yours that are selling are pristine...mirrors not needing re-silvered, solid frames, no cracks, etc.
It is hard to tell from the photo because of reflections if the discoloration I am seeing is in the mirror or just reflections from the room. If yours has any discoloration or needs re-silvering, that will definitely lower the value.
You could always put it on your local Facebook Sale Want Trade sites or Next Door and ask $50 and take best offer.
Post back with an update!! Happy selling!!
This one was mass produced and doesn't have a great value at this time.It is very lovely!
