Mark's carving skills are very much in evidence in the frame of this mirror. The chip carving is enhanced by the aged painted surface. The surface looks ancient with worn areas and variations in the colors. The entire surface is chip carved including the sides. The back is aged and the nails used to hold the mirror in place are of an early vintage. The mirror can be used but it has been aged beautifully. The frame is 10 inches wide by 15 inches deep. The mirror itself is 7.5 inches wide by 9.5 inches tall. Made in 2000.Photos by Jan Riser.
