Combining rich textures with a bold color palette, this mirror features a unique "sunburst" motif that brings a sophisticated Mediterranean flair to any interior.
Artisanal Technique & Construction:
The mirror is built on a stable engineered wood base, specifically chosen by artisans of that era to provide a durable foundation for the heavy, hand-sculpted stucco relief. This construction ensures the frame remains structurally sound while supporting the intricate decorative layers. The frame is masterfully finished with:

Emerald Green Enamel: A deep, textured forest green that provides a stunning contrast to the metallic accents.
Gold Leaf: Hand-applied gilding on the central "rays" and the decorative leaf elements.
Bronze & Wood Accents: Detailed bronze-tone studs and hand-carved wooden inserts add structural beauty and depth.
Provenance: The reverse features a vintage paper label from 'La Vieja España,' providing a charming glimpse into its Spanish history and mid-century origins.

Looking for a Pair?
I currently have a matching companion mirror available in my shop. While both pieces share the exact same dimensions, emerald green palette, and gold-leaf technique, they feature subtle variations in the hand-sculpted design, creating a beautifully curated "matched but not identical" look.
