Late 19th Century American Pyrography Holly Framed Mirror

About the Item

A sweet and sophisticated late 19th century American pyrography framed mirror with a hand-carved holly and berries pattern and a finely carved pattern behind the foliage. Pyrography is a 17th century technique that uses a heated poker to free-hand draw and burn patterns into wood. Holly leaves have long been symbols of protection from evil, peace, and goodwill. The 19th century saw the peak of the art form. This mirror would be perfect in your bedroom, powder room, or any other place you need a little extra sparkle.
