Huge Shark Spotted at Byron Bay

Contemporary Frame with Antique Mirror

Although this looks like a painting, it is in fact a cleverly placed mirror. The frame is a custom made Water gilded, silver gilt with 12ct white gold leaf featuring an etched and burnished pattern.  It has also been lightly antiqued. Inside we have placed a custom made antique mirror.

Photographing mirrors is always a challenge but the trick is to use the reflection  to your advantage. Find an interesting subject and shoot it using the mirror as essentially a large filter.

We're all about mixing the old with the new here at Antique Mirror Glass which is why we choose to use this juxtaposition of a modern graffiti painting reflected in an antiqued mirror and handmade frame using authentic and original techniques.
