This series of mirrors are riffing off of my original Bull’s Eye Mirror series that were large and perfectly round. The oval frame is inspired by the paths particles take as they orbit a nucleus. The half moon table reflected in the mirror creates full circle but also a dramatic and unexpected illusion that there’s a hole in the wall and you can reach your hand right in. The wood colours are all natural. Bloodwood, Satinwood, Wengé, Holly, Pear, Bog Oak and a touch of Mother of Pearl. Comes with a robust steel wall mounting bracket. W 24’’ x D 12’’ x H 50’’
