About the Item

This carefully designed and handcrafted wooden mirror frame, designed and made by Tomaz Viana consists of a very angular profile made from a very expressive grained Iberian oak with several knots. It frames a 4mm mirror and a 6mm plywood board gives it the structure in the back. It can be hanged on a wall by using the two fixtures installed on the vertical profiles as showned on the detail picture. The whole piece is structured by a fine and intricate hidden system of joints and classical woodworking techniques were applied. Made from solid French oak. Finished without sandpaper or modern technologies, instead, the surface is smoothed with a hand plane and other cutting blade tools, the original techniques used in the 18th century. This methods require years of expertise, knowledge of the material and handling of tools, from it, the surfaces acquire a special patina and since the whole piece of furniture is wood carved, the cut wooden fibres transmit to the sight and touch a sense of poetic and soft primitiveness. The expression of the hand. Also from the classic cabinet making techniques knowledge are the joints and construction systems applied, creating a solid and durable item to last generations and be an antique of the future.
