Square Floral Lattice Mirror

This early 20th century lattice window panel likely originated in a northern Chinese home with neutral and balanced interiors. Both functional and decorative, lattice windows allowed for fresh air and light to flow into a room while still maintaining privacy. Set within a square frame, this lattice panel has a repeating puzzle-like design created by carefully interlocking small wooden pieces to form a dizzying geometric pattern. The lattice is further decorated with floral carvings of four-petal flowers and the occasional chrysanthemum. For added dimension, we’ve backed the lattice panel with mirror glass for use as an unexpected wall mirror.
