This is a mirror I completed January 2013. The primary wood is air dried walnut with the secondary wood tulip poplar. It is a copy of a mirror from The Mirror Book by Herbert Schiffer, page 158, plate 399. Slight changes were made in the frame profile to my own taste. The mirror is from an old framed mirror purchased in an antique mall in St. Louis, MO which had the wrinkled glass needed to accommodate the project for the desired affect. The finish is orange shellac--approximately 25 coats.
