Here comes the Sun

Sunburst mirrors date back to Louis XIV, known as the “Sun King”, 
as the story goes, he used to stare into his sunburst mirror
 each morning to see his face in the center of the sun’s rays. 
He was certainly not a modest man!

Sunburst mirrors create beautiful focal point and add interest to any room.
