Inspired by the Sacred Ceiba trees in Havana, Joao Faria created the stunning Roots Mirror for contemporary homes. It is handcrafted using carefully selected metals and materials. Many consider this piece a work of art, like a sculpture.
The Roots Collection includes coffee tables, console tables, desks, and screens. Each piece is handmade to order, allowing us to manufacture it in endless combinations.
This piece is entirely made in Portugal and artisanally by the author. Its manufacturing process is time-consuming because, among other complex operations, every mirror insert is drawn, cut, and fitted onto the metal structure without machinery. The metal structure is made from very thick and resistant steel, stainless steel, copper, or brass, depending on the final version of the mirror. The final finish on the copper is varnish to protect the metal from stains.
The "Roots Mirror" listed here is made of brushed copper and a clear glass mirror. It's a showroom sample in perfect condition. Copper furniture is not just a trend; it will last a long time. It's perfect for creating a warm and inviting ambience in any space. Also, copper is 100% recyclable, eco-friendly, and highly durable.
However, the item is also available in customised options:
Metal: Stainless steel, brass, or copper (these metals can have a polished, brushed, or "Industrial Chic" finish). You can choose between stainless steel, copper, brass, or lacquered steel. Stainless steel, copper, and brass can be finished in three styles: polished, brushed, or "Industrial Chic" finish. The "Industrial Chic" finish is handmade by the author, making every piece truly unique. The lacquered steel can be any RAL colour.
Mirror: Clear, grey, black, or bronze.
Back: It can be in different lacquer colours or wood veneers, such as ironwood, black oak, tineo, and ebony macassar. The wood finish can be matt, satin or high-gloss.
Custom dimensions are only available after analysis.
For added security, the mirror should be securely nailed to the wall. We send all the hardware to ensure its safe attachment.
You can try it in your space using Augmented Reality with your mobile phone (Roots Collection, available on our website).
This piece is assembled, and it will be delivered in a wooden box packed in bubble wrap.
The Roots Mirror is entirely made in Portugal and manufactured artisanally. The author carefully executed or supervised every process step in a small workshop context.
