Mirror N°6
Ref: WD-M-006
Mirror No. 6 is a sculptural architectural mirror composition defined by its asymmetrical proportions and refined handcrafted metalwork. Executed in either brass with aged bronze finish or polished nickel silver, the frame is entirely hand-sawn and engraved by master artisans with intricate floral ornamentation mounted in relief against a deeply patinated backing surface, creating a refined two-tone effect between the darker recessed bronze and the lighter raised metalwork. The upper and side borders maintain equal proportions, while the lower section expands to double the width, creating a subtle architectural imbalance that gives the mirror a strong sculptural identity. Positioned within this enlarged lower section is an offset Fibonacci medallion integrated into the hand-sawn composition, creating a discreet focal point within the ornamental framework.
Brass, Aged Bronze Finish.
Nickel Silver, Polished Finish.
430 x 80 x 1100 (h) mm
The mirror is designed for clean and secure wall installation through an integrated concealed fixation system positioned within the reverse of the frame. The assembly also allows straightforward access to the mirrored surface from behind, enabling the mirror itself to be removed and replaced if required.
Our brass pieces are hand-finished and aged to a rich bronze patination, then protected using a durable satin interior varnish designed to preserve the finish while maintaining the natural depth and warmth of the metal. For regular care, pieces should simply be dusted using a soft dry cloth without water or abrasive cleaning products. Over time, as with all living materials, the finish may naturally deepen and evolve in tone, developing an increasingly antique character that forms part of the beauty of aged bronze and brass.
Polished nickel silver is not an electroplated finish but a solid material that may naturally soften slightly over time through handling and exposure. As with traditional silver objects, the surface may be restored using standard silver polishes widely available in hardware stores, or through traditional methods such as gentle lemon-based cleaning. Microfibre cloths are recommended for routine care, while abrasive materials and scratching should be avoided. Mirror surfaces should be cleaned carefully using appropriate non-abrasive glass-cleaning products applied to a soft cloth rather than sprayed directly onto the artwork. Due to the entirely handmade nature of the work, subtle artisanal irregularities, variations, and traces of hand craftsmanship form an intentional part of the character and authenticity of each piece.
