About the Item

This mirror frame was made in Rangoon from rosewood and carved in a subtle bamboo pattern. The mirror was part of a series found in a Chinese-Burmese home. During the British Colonial period, many Chinese immigrated to Burma from Guangdong Province to work for the British. Many prospered and built luxurious compounds in the Chinese style. As transport was difficult and expensive, these houses were furnished from abundant (and excellent) local materials, such as Teak, Rosewood, silk.
