Magic Mirror for Hidden #Christians in #Japan #魔境- #隠れキリシタンの所蔵品

The technique of this special mirror was found around from BC 1 century in China.

It is not sure how it has been passed to Japan, but definitely, this is a craft Kyoto can be proud of.

According to this Japanese article, currently only one family can create this type of mirror in Japan.
