Superb very thick mirror in walnut wood with a hollow bottom which allowed the Orthodox to hide Bibles.
This mirror was initially a wall mirror which was transformed into a psychic mirror.
You can hang it on the wall or use it as a psyche.

This piece of furniture and Ariège heritage is indeed a mirror but also a hiding place to hide the Bibles during the incursions of the "King's Dragons" and to pass for good Catholics.

The bottom has certainly been modified, and the ice is very little pitted.

It will be very beautiful in a bedroom or a bathroom, a living room\.
In very good condition, some slight traces of time, and very slightly pitted mirror.
