The Botero Frame

This one off mirror was inspired by the curved sculptures of Colombian artist Botero.

At an impressive 2 x 2.3 metres, with a 14cm wide frame, it is a shining example of the large format projects that come through our workshops.


The frame has been hand gilded with 23 1/4 carat gold leaf on a red clay base. This has then been rubbed through with pumice powder to achieve a red glow, before being burnished by hand.

The furniture shown is shown by furniture designer Jens Risom who is represented by Rocket Gallery.
