That magic mostly comes from the alchemy that appears to happen when you apply silvering to the back of a piece of glass — the simple act of physics transforms the glass, giving it the magical power we call a reflection.

This reflection will add light and depth to the environment it resides in. It also helps in the more mundane activities of life, like straightening your tie, or a final check for little green bits left from lunch hiding in your teeth.

But this mirror is. You can find the matching gentleman's dresser in Issue 128. In our next issue we will complete the bedroom suite with a matching nightstand.
