Photos by Cal Knapp and Sean Starr
This custom mirror was created in our studio for Vagabond Hat Company located in Dallas’ Cedars neighborhood. The piece was executed using verre eglomise techniques combining paints, mica powders, copper leaf and genuine gold leaf in 23.75k, 18k and 12k white gold with the mirror surface executed in genuine silver leaf.
The antique frame was stripped down and painted before receiving an antiqued copper leaf treatment followed with a subtle glaze finish.
The mirror hangs in Vagabond’s showroom where client’s can try on their hats during the sizing process.
Decorative Painting: Rumi's Uptown Houston
This massive antiqued mirror project measures approximately 23 feet in width and is adorned with a heavily detailed tree design. The color palette is a combination of soft toned colors creating a very muted effect that is soft and subtle. The artwork was executed in oil based enamels, custom mixed and blended by brush.
The mirror is located in the main dining hall at the soon to open Rumi’s Kitchen in Houston’s Uptown district, a new addition to the restaurant locations in Atlanta and Washington DC.
