Montura Oval Beveled Mesquite Mirror With "Piteado" Embroidered Leather Belt

The Montura mirror was designed as part of the Bajio Collection in Guanajuato. Inspired by the traditional wooden saddles found throughout the Mexican Bajio region since colonial times, the mirror is crafted from Mesquite wood and adorned with an embroidered belt and bronze buckle, making it a true small work of art.In Guanajuato, the use of Mesquite and leather has been a way of life since colonial times, serving as traditional materials for furniture and utensils. Known for its dense and heavy nature, Mesquite wood ages gracefully over time, developing a deeper and richer tone. Additionally, embroidered leather belts and objects are a significant element of the charrería, a symbol of Mexican cowboy culture.Care:Periodically wipe with linseed oil to keep wood hydrated and maintain color richness. Please use leather polish on back side of belt only to not damage or stain the embroidery. Please note that our Mesquite pieces are all "organic" meaning that we keep all the beautiful marks and natural marks of the original trunk. Therefore your mirror will have areas that have indentations, crevices and imperfections that are cleaned and polished, but not filled. This is part of the charm and history of the original mesquite trunk.
