Description
Embroidered Tiger Hand Mirror from National Museum of Korea
This exquisite hand mirror features a stunning tiger design inspired by traditional Korean folk art from the National Central Museum special exhibition “Tigers in East Asian Art.” The tiger motif is crafted using authentic Korean mother-of-pearl (Najeon) craftsmanship with full-color printing technology (Patent No. 10-0720187).
Cultural Significance
In Korean culture, the tiger holds deep symbolic meaning as a guardian creature that wards off evil spirits and misfortune. The magpie represents good news and fortune. Tiger-related artwork and stories have been an integral part of Korean life for centuries, appearing as both a fearsome beast and a familiar, protective companion.
This tiger pillow-end decoration design was traditionally believed to protect sleepers from bad dreams and ensure peaceful rest.

Snygg spegel med tiger. Tygkvaliteten är bra och färgerna levande. Den var lite mindre än jag trodde, men fortfarande fin att ha på hyllan.

Le miroir est très joli. La texture en nacre donne un aspect chic. Parfait pour vérifier mon look chaque matin et agréable à tenir en main.

The mirror looks good. The tiger design is unique and colorful, but the color was lighter than I thought. Easy to hold too, just a bit small for my liking.

Il design della tigre è molto bello e interessante. La qualità dell’arte madreperla si nota, anche se era un po’ più piccolo di quanto pensassi. Arrivato in tempo ma con confezione semplice.
