Both mirrors appear in very good condition.
According to the National Museum's scientific investigations of the inventory at Bidstrup in 1952, the mirrors were restored in Brussels between 1867–1892.
On this occasion, the mirror frame glass is each mounted in thin lead frames. They are mounted on black-painted wood with suspension in the form of iron hooks and strong metal wire.
Wear due to age and dark areas, one of the smaller mirror glass on the edges are broken/cracked. Please see the attached pictures.
One of the large lower glass mirrors has been changed and is of a later date.
