Mirror
The back of this small mirror is decorated with an allover pattern of six-petal rosettes with a small knob in the center, a feature thought to have been copied from Chinese mirrors. Mirrors made of bronze, which could be polished into a highly reflective surface, were common throughout the medieval world, until they were replaced with silver-coated glass examples.
