Vintage Indian Shuttered Window Mirror. Finished in a distressed baby blue and turquoise colour palette. SUBSTANTIAL HOOKS FOR WALL HANGING TO REAR, THOUGH DISPLAYED HERE ON AN ARTIST'S EASEL. This substantial antique wall mirror started life as a shuttered window in Rajasthan. Reclaimed from architectural salvage, made from the tropical hardwood teak and lovingly re-purposed as a mirror, it makes a great decorative statement.
In a previous incarnation, it would have graced the walls of a grand 19th century haveli, a wealthy merchant's mansion. Finished in a distressed baby bue and turquoise over traces of burgundy red, with edges in waxed teak , and still retaining its original iron latch and hinges, it certainly has considerable age on its side and would add a touch of Bombay chic to any room in a contemporary interior. Turning your des res into a desi resi, as it were. Once the days start to get longer again, shuttered mirrors also look the part hung outside in a garden setting against a distressed wall draped in a creeping clematis, or similar. When left open in a garden setting, the reflection suggests a secret garden beyond.Don't forget, as shuttered windows, they've already spent decades open to the elements. Recently reglazed, wooden surface lightly waxed. Substantial metal hanging hooks to rear, though shown here displayed on an artist's easel.
