Metal Mirror Marvel From Aranmula, Kerala:A Rare Specular Delta Bronze Craft.
Mirrors are usually synonymous with glass in modern times. Metal mirrors are rare to find in the contemporary age. Yet, Aranmula is a place in Kerala, south of India which is famous for making metal mirrors from the alloy of copper and tin. It is a traditional art practiced by local communities of that village where the entire mirror is handmade. The best part is that the metal mirror is highly polished and carved out in such a manner that it gives an absolute point image with the highest quality of reflectance.
