Extra Notes following valuation
The mirror was made in China in the late 19th Century to early 20th century , the belt hook could have been carved at the same period or earlier but this is confirmed late 19th Century.
There are many of these wares on offer in China and they are mostly contemporary handles to the silver. The 19th century mirrors and early 20th century ones in the main had older jade items adorning them. I still feel that this is very late 19th or even 20th Century.
