The Sapphire convex mirror is one of my oldest ones. It consists of blue glass cabochons and beads with large cast resin “jewels” surrounding the center. I purposely varied the intensity of the blue to represent many of the blue shades sapphires come in. It is a striking piece!
This mirror measures about about 14.5 inches in diameter. It resides in my studio.
Jewelry for walls!
