This unique circular mirror which has been custom fashioned with an antique Spanish wooden brazier as the surround which has been wrapped with copper sheeting and beautifully adorn with a nail-head design, and fitted with a with new mirrored glass in it's center. The brazier (also referred to as a brasero) is a late 19th to early 20th century heating element from Spain, which once would have been used to heat a home, with a bowl with hot coals held within it's center (where the new mirror is now). The sides of the mirror project out from the wall due to the recessed-set carved pedestal legs (nicely scalloped along their feet), giving this wall decoration a depth of approximately 6" from the wall, creating visual interest when viewed from it's sides. The copper, nail heads and wood all have a nice old patina, and some minor losses (which we feel adds to the character). This custom antique Spanish brass Brasero mirror is just over 2.5 feet in diameter, making it a great, versatilely sized piece of art for your wall. See less
