About the Item
This beautifully hand-tooled Mexican tin mirror embodies the spirit of traditional folk craftsmanship found throughout Central and Northern Mexico and beloved by collectors in Santa Fe. The arched frame features delicately embossed floral and star motifs in silver-toned tin, accented by gilded brass details in the form of doves and flowers that glimmer warmly against the oxidized metal.
At its center, the scalloped mirror sits behind a pair of hinged opening doors, allowing the piece to be displayed either open to reveal the mirror or closed as a decorative wall shrine. The craftsmanship reflects classic San Miguel de Allende-style repoussé work, with each hammered design executed by hand using age-old metal-working techniques.
This versatile mirror brings depth, light, and character to any interior — ideal for layering above a console, integrating into a gallery wall, or styling as an accent in a powder room or entryway. Whether open or closed, it captures the romantic patina and charm that collectors associate with Mexican folk art, Santa Fe hacienda décor, and handcrafted vintage tinwork.
Styling Ideas:
Hang it above an antique commode, rustic console, or vintage vanity.
Style alongside Santos figures, retablos, or colonial religious art for a curated Santa Fe vignette.
Mix into an “old-world eclectic” gallery wall for texture and light.
