Mexican Tin Milagros - Small Tin Angel Mirror

This small angel is cut from tin in Oaxaca, Mexico, and set with a mirror at its centre. It is made by hand for Sedona Spirit, who have sourced folk art directly from makers since 1988.

Mirrors are often set into Mexican tinwork to catch light and throw it back into a room, and in a small piece like this one the glass becomes the brightest point on a wall or a tree.

Cleaning Tin and Mirror Glass

Clean the mirror by spraying a little glass cleaner onto a cloth, never onto the angel itself, since liquid that seeps behind the glass can lift the backing and rust the tin. Dust the rest of the piece with a dry cloth.

Material: tin, mirror glass
Made in: Oaxaca, Mexico
