$2,843.00
This breathtaking handheld mirror is truly one-of-a-kind — the first ever created by legendary silversmith Federico Jimenez. It is a piece of art that transcends utility, marrying form and craftsmanship into a striking statement of Southwestern heritage and timeless beauty.
Design & Craftsmanship
The mirror’s frame is meticulously handcrafted from solid sterling silver, with extraordinary stampwork surrounding every curve and contour. The hand-stamped motifs create rhythm and texture that perfectly complement the brilliant turquoise inlays. The back features smooth, rich wood that can be opened to easily access the mirror itself — a thoughtful and functional detail true to Federico’s attention to both artistry and purpose.
Turquoise & Stones
The frame is set with 55 hand-selected turquoise stones, each chosen for its exceptional color, webbing, and character. Federico combined three of the most revered turquoise varieties —
• No. 8 turquoise with its distinctive golden-brown spiderweb matrix,
• Kingman turquoise in its radiant sky-blue hues, and
• Spiderweb turquoise that adds depth and contrast with its intricate veining.
The blues truly pop — a mesmerizing palette of oceanic depth and desert sky brilliance. Each stone is bezel-set with impeccable precision, creating a symphony of color and pattern that draws the eye in every direction.
