Stained Glass Iris Mirror

 

This is a unique item that could fit in any room in your house. The frame itself is pre-loved, and was made by Alex at Picturesque - professional framers in Scarborough. I took the original artwork out of the frame, but kept the glass for this project. Everything else is new.

I made the mirror on a stained-glass course in 2013, but I’ve never used it (I made an owl mirror at the same time, so that’s the one that hangs in my hallway! This one has lived in a drawer for over 20 years). I added brown/gold mosaic craft tiles to the frame, to make a border, which I then grouted. There is a centre piece of mosaic tiles in the middle for support. The mirror is glued on with strong PVA glue.

All measurements are approximate:

Mirror itself 14.5cm x 29.5cm; the stained-glass piece which surrounds the mirror glass 25cm x 40cm; the outside of the frame 35cm x 50cm. Depth 3cm. Weight 2.9kg.
