Designer Wall Mirror in Gilded Teak with a Greek Key Frame and Oval Plate

Look at where the flowering trails run. They start on the openwork panel, cross onto the beaded ring of the oval, and in places pass over the joint where the two frames meet. That crossing is the whole problem of this design.

A trail carved in one piece across that junction would sit exactly on a glue line, and a glue line is the one place in any frame that will eventually show movement. So our artisans carve the trails as separate sprigs - short lengths of stem, leaf and flower - and fit them only after both frames are assembled and squared. Each sprig is then let into the surface it lands on, and the sprigs are arranged so that the visual line of the trail is continuous while the physical timber is not.

Follow a stem with your eye and it flows unbroken. Put a fingernail on it and you would find the breaks. That is the intended result: a decoration that reads as one growing thing while every piece of it is free to move on its own.

Material: solid teak throughout, hand-carved by master Indian artisans.

Structure: pierced rectangular outer frame worked as a stepped Greek key; inner oval frame with beaded moulding; the two joined through the openwork panels, with stepped feet and a centre plinth at the base.

Ornament: flowering trails fitted as individual carved sprigs; floral and shell crest above.

Finish: gold gilding over the carved surfaces, burnished on the beads and key returns. Silver, ivory, champagne, black with gold and natural teak also available.

Plate: oval mirror glass, plain or bevelled, set into a rebate from the back.

Sizes: custom sizes made to order - final measurements confirmed in writing before production.

Photography: images on this page are photographs of the actual product, not renders.

This frame has more exposed edges than most - a pierced key border, an oval ring, a crest and dozens of carved flower sprigs standing clear of the surface. Packing it is a matter of supporting each of those separately.

The openwork is packed with soft foam pressed into the voids of the key pattern so the stepped returns are supported from inside rather than squeezed from outside. Each raised sprig is padded individually. The crest gets a moulded cap.

The oval plate is faced with film and backed with a board cut to the ellipse so the glass carries no load at any point. The complete mirror then goes into laminated foam and bubble wrap, and into a fitted wooden crate marked for orientation.

Multi-layer protective packaging is standard, and we guarantee dent-free arrival on every order.

Delivery anywhere in India is free and included in the price - no freight charge, no distance loading, no surcharge for reaching a smaller town.

Production begins once your size, plate and finish are confirmed in writing. You get a realistic production window then, and we tell you as the piece moves from carving through gilding to crating.

The consignment is tracked and our team stays reachable through the journey. Dent-free arrival is guaranteed and it is our responsibility to honour.

Let us know about any access limitation at your end - a tight stairwell, a lift with a low ceiling, a narrow gate - and we plan the crating and route around it before the mirror leaves the workshop.

The solid teak structure carries a 20-year Brown Rabbit warranty on the frame and its joinery - the outer key frame, the oval frame, the joints between them and the base plinth and feet.

Alongside it sits a lifetime warranty against termite damage, valid for as long as the mirror is yours. Teak carries natural oils that make it resistant to termites, and we put that resistance in writing.

The gilding is applied and burnished by hand across a great many small surfaces on this design, so the depth of shine varies slightly from bead to bead and leaf to leaf. That is what a hand-gilded surface looks like at close range and it is intended.

Written warranty terms are issued with your order, so the cover is settled in advance.
