Contemporary Amorphic Tiger Maple Wall Mirror

About The Project

This wall mirror is based on a design I saw in a magazine back in the 1980’s. The free-flowing shape of the mirror highlights the tiger maple frame’s grain pattern. Tiger maple is a highly sought-after, figured lumber known for its dramatic, shimmering stripes that run perpendicular to the wood grain, often called curly or flame maple. It is primarily sourced from soft red maple. In addition to furniture, it is used for violin backs and guitar bodies, thus leading to another common name, fiddleback maple.

By changing the mounting points of the suspension wire, the mirror can be hung in any orientation.
