This example is rendered in warm, richly grained teak, with a softly rounded rectangular frame and gently contoured inner and outer edges that catch the light along their curve. Look closely at the corners and you'll find the maker's signature: neat, exposed finger-joints, a small but telling detail that reflects the level of hand craftsmanship Pedersen & Hansen built their reputation on, and a quick way to distinguish an authentic piece from the many unmarked Danish mirrors of the era. 

The mirror plate itself is original and in [clean / lightly foxed / please describe] condition, and the frame has been [cleaned and oiled / retains its original finish — describe as accurate]. It hangs vertically or horizontally with equal ease, making it as much at home over a console or bar cart as in an entryway or bedroom. A quietly confident piece of Scandinavian design — understated, well made, and built to outlast trend cycles the way the best Danish modern furniture always has. See less
