Object Description

Ornately decorated with arched trefoils and twisted detailing, this antique wrought iron mirror is an elegant showpiece in any space. The ironwork is believed to have been taken from Salisbury Cathedral, known for its gothic architecture, and later fitted with mirrored glass. Look closely at the round frame and discover an array of finely detailed patterning and hints of original gilding throughout the patina. Estimated to be more than 150 years old, the intricate wrought iron design was traditionally handcrafted using the process of fire welding. This is where metal is heated to a high temperature and hammered together in a furnace.

Object Condition

Good structural condition. Later fitted with mirror. There are two holes drilled in the frame for fixing to a wall.
