flattened down one side a bit

or printed as transfers on dessert plates

one can see through the black blob a bit to what it is concealing

I've fallen in love with more than a few hetchels

Two Views, Self-reflexive c. 1900 Hand Mirror, Woman Admiring Her Long Locks folding flattened down one side aI really like self reflexive things, making reference to their own use, here an implied infinity loop of sorts, with the back of the mirror picturing woman holding the same form of mirror to view herself. (Kind of an odd image, too, as if she were contemplating chopping off all her hair!) I like the shape of the wire loop handle too, perfect for hanging. A collection of mirrors referencing the act of looking itself would be an interesting collection
