Description
The Aranmula Kannadi Shankh with Stand is a unique decorative mirror crafted using an ancient metallurgical technique. Unlike ordinary mirrors made of glass, Aranmula mirrors are made from a polished metal alloy composed of copper and tin, creating a clear and distortion-free reflection.
Designed in the symbolic Shankh (conch) shape, the mirror is mounted on a decorative stand that enhances its aesthetic appeal. In Indian culture, the conch represents purity, prosperity, and spiritual energy, making this mirror both a decorative and meaningful artifact.
Craftsmanship & Origin

The copper–tin alloy is carefully prepared and polished manually for long hours until a flawless reflective surface is achieved. Each mirror is handcrafted with exceptional precision, reflecting the expertise of artisans who continue this rare and prestigious craft tradition.
