FEATHERBURST MIRROR

38" diam.

This fanciful mirror is a burst of symbols from the Indian traditions of the Great West. A ring of fringed and beaded rawhide is encompassed by a headdress of feathers clasped by conchas. The frame is leafed in sterling silver. The design is centered by a convex mirror - bright like the sun and round like a council circle or kiva, gathering in all that surrounds it.
