Description

Copper alloy box with mirror mounted inside. The orientation of the mirror can be adjusted. At the bottom of one side of the box is a round hole that appears as if it should hold a push fit accessory. On the opposite side of the box, though higher up, is a larger circular opening which should have a screw fit attachment. Under this opening is a square hole covered with a spring-loaded copper alloy plate.
