The Aranmula Metal Mirror
CUL0135
The world of timeless beauty - Aranmula Kannadi (Metal Mirror). It's more than just a mirror - it's a piece of artistry that's been perfected over generations. These mirrors are crafted from special alloy which is a combination of various metals including copper and tin. The radiance of golden and silver tones is captured in a frame shaped like a delicate peacock feather with an elegant curved design that adds grace and beauty to this traditional piece.
Aranmula Kannadi is a unique metal mirror handcrafted using a secret alloy formula that has been guarded and passed down through generations of artisans in Aranmula village, Kerala. Unlike conventional glass mirrors, these are made from a precise combination of copper and tin, polished to perfection. The mirrors are front-reflecting, meaning the reflective surface is on the front of the metal rather than the back, eliminating the secondary ghost image found in glass mirrors and creating a clearer, more auspicious reflection.
The peacock feather frame design holds deep significance in Indian culture. The peacock, India's national bird, symbolizes beauty, grace, and divine protection. In Hindu mythology, the peacock is associated with Goddess Saraswati (knowledge and arts) and Lord Kartikeya (courage and victory). This peacock feather-shaped frame combines the sacred mirror tradition with auspicious symbolism, creating a piece that is both spiritually significant and aesthetically magnificent.
The frame features delicate curves that mimic the graceful shape of a peacock feather, intricate detailing that showcases traditional metalwork, golden and silver tones that create a harmonious, luxurious appearance, and elegant proportions that make it perfect for display. The combination of the sacred Aranmula mirror and the peacock feather design creates a truly special piece.
This mirror is perfect for home temples and pooja rooms, dressing tables and vanity areas, living room wall decor, as an auspicious gift for weddings and housewarmings, or as a collector's item celebrating Kerala's heritage. The peacock feather shape makes it a distinctive and elegant addition to any space.
