Indian Mirror with Marquetry Frame

No bare patch anywhere. Whoever laid these leaves did not care for empty space.

From Rajasthan, India, this contemporary mirror with a marquetry frame is made of camel bone and sheesham wood. Frames like it descend from the decorative inlay that Rajasthan's craftsmen have long applied to boxes, doors and furniture in the region's homes and palaces. White leaves and trailing stems crowd a black ground, running around all four sides. Thin strips of bone edge the frame, and the glass has a beveled edge. Thirty-six inches wide and 48 high.

You will be the quiet part of the picture.
