# Mirror frame

This expertly fashioned mirror frame was made within the Mughal empire, probably in the late 18th or early 19th century. It has been carved from a single piece of nephrite jade, which is a hard and durable material that requires patience and skill to work, particularly in this example where the design is openwork.

- **Kind:** artefact
