This item is a vintage reproduction mirror featuring "A New and Accvrat Map of the World," originally drawn by the English cartographer John Speed in 1626. While the original 17th-century map is a rare historical artifact, this specific item is a decorative bar mirror likely produced in the late 20th century (typically the 1970s or 1980s). It uses a foil-backed or "Dufex" printing process to create the shimmering gold and silver effects seen on the map's continents and decorative borders. Key Features of the Map Double Hemisphere: Shows the world divided into Western and Eastern halves. Celestial & Zodiac Imagery: The top border features the sun and various zodiac constellations. Historical Cartography: Includes "modern" (for 1626) details such as California depicted as an island and parts of the world labeled as "Magillanica" (Antarctica). Decorative Vignettes: The corners and bottom edge (labeled MERIDES) are filled with portraits of explorers, allegorical figures representing the four elements, and celestial diagrams.
