In ancient China, before the invention of modern mirrors, bronze hand mirrors with beautifully decorated backs were used in daily dressing and grooming rituals. A bronze mirror has two sides, a reflective side and a decorative back side. Dating back 4000 years, these intricate mirror-back designs reveal distinctive ancient artistry and a significant cultural heritage. No wonder the designs have endured as an art form. These wonderful mirror-back designs incorporate more than beauty and simple decoration, however, as each exotic pattern contains deeper meaning.
