Mirror
New Kingdom
This disk of this mirror is copper alloy and was cast with a tang at the bottom that fits into the handle. The handle was carved from coniferous wood. The mirror was found in the bottom of a coffin discovered in the tomb of Hatnefer (36.3.1). A number of other objects in the Museum's collection were in the same coffin including a faience bowl and two dishes (36.3.8–.10), a wood cosmetic box (36.3.11a, b), another mirror (36.3.13), and five amulets (36.3.20–.24).
