How does a fun house mirror work?
1 Answer

Fun house mirrors work due to the shape of their glass surfaces. By introducing curves into the glass and tilting the panels, craftsmen create mirrors that distort the appearance of a person standing in front of them. You'll find a range of fun house mirrors on 1stDibs.
