Mirror Stand

Cleveland Museum of Art

The Mirror Stand by an unknown artist features a dark bronze or brass base and stem with gold inlays. The base is round with a scalloped edge and a short stem that widens into a teardrop shape before narrowing again. A round, scalloped plate tops the stem, adorned with intricate gold calligraphy and floral patterns. The plate's center displays prominent gold Arabic calligraphy surrounded by a border of smaller text and flowers. The entire piece stands on a gray gradient background.
