    Vielleicht bringt eine Metallspange, also ein Metall in U-Form (liegendes U) Stabilität. Es sollte oben und unten ein Loch haben. Das obere mit einem Gewinde. Füge es in den Schlitz an der Spiegelrückwand und schiebe den unteren Bügel unter die Deckplatte des Korpus. Dann schiebe eine Gewindestange durch beide Löcher bis zim Anschlag, schraube sie in das Gewinde oben und sichere unten mit einer Mutter.
    Ich bin gespannt wie das übersetzt wird : )

    Did you ask Robinson Glass? I would stain or do somethng to make that reddish base look darker. This is an excellent piece and you did an amazing job. So glad you used oil. Loved that idea to use the washer.

    The mirror was likely attached with a bolt through the hole in the vanity and a thin nut in the slot on the mirror. There could have also been a small bracket from the vanity to the base of the mirror to keep it from twisting. It is a beautiful piece!

      And I third that I was going to say one of the things I learned is when adding those little pieces of veneer while the glue is still wet add some of the sanding dust in and it will look more blended in where u can’t really tell unless u no where the repair places are

      Absolutely agree, Trena, from John's furniture Repair is the best!! It's a steel rod that goes in the hole, then a metal bracket attachment. She will help you! Good luck & a Absolutely great find!!

    What an unusual, stunning piece. So glad you did not try to do anything clever, but just took it back to what it was meant to be. Maybe that base coving was painted to bring out even more that rich grain.

    Perhaps the base should be painted black, since it is a different wood. It would compliment the marble top

      I am old as dirt so I can remember furniture like this growing up. It lasted a life time .The pieces offen had black bases or black somewhere on them. I also believe this has a black base because of the marble. It turned out to be beautiful.

    From the looks of it, the support may have been a bolt that just went up into the mirror thru a T bracket or a couple of L brackets that were fixed to the back of both parts.
    There may have been a mounting bit behind the mirror (inside the hollow) that helped stabilize the whole thing. The safest way without trying to remove the mirror to add all that stuff is probably finding a way to get some L brackets and a rod you can glue in, screwing those L brackets to the back and adding some more brackets towards each end. Not the most stable but will hold it if you're not moving it a lot.

    As for these older pieces, to be more usable, I would like to have a base added to most of these so as to
    accomodate the height(s) of today's people.

    Beautiful, I'm so glad that you didnt stain the wood. The grain pattern, and tones of the wood is just gorgeous. I really love how the mirror is lighter it goes beautifully with the base😊😊😊. Fab job on the veneer repairing, you should be so stoked on how well it came out❤ for the mirror, maybe a steel dowel? With a metal support to connect the back of mirror to the back of the piece ? As added support with the metal dowel?

    What an outstanding job. Love the hard wax oil finish on this piece. It’s perfection. I’m not sure people would have fussed about making the base darker. It looks like it was dark to begin with. I use Fusion mineral paint and I love it.
