Fiziksel açıklama
A pair of identical rectangular mirrors set within polylobed carved wooden frames, the borders of which are decorated with dense floral scrolls. Each frame has a rectangular central mirror, which is surrounded by a band of Arabic inscriptions (possibly Quranic) painted in yellow and a fine running floral band (painted in yellow and green); the top portion is carved in the shape of a polylobed arch, with an oval mirror in the centre and similar Arabic inscriptions surrounding it.
