Brand spanking new, this is Alissia MT’s latest coup de grace and it goes out to all the ladies out there (guys, no need to zone out, you can continue reading and get it for your loved one’s…).
Once, quite while back in history, vanities were a most common thing. You’d sit down in front of it, pick up a little hand mirror and do your thing. You know, the whole ‘whose the fairest of them all’ – thing. But then hand mirrors pretty much disappeared; as did vanities and today, you bend over a sink and helplessly attempt to do the same thing there. Not half as romantic of course and not half as effective either.
Granted, you could go out, get yourself a little hand mirror, and reenact the whole scene, but chances are that you’ll have a hard time finding a beautiful one. You’ll find a large array of cheap plastic pieces, but the pretty ones of yore are all gone unfortunately. Well, not quite, because Alissia’s Me-Ror brings back just that time. Hand crafted entirely out of glass, the Me-Ror has a wonderful solid feel to it. Unlike its ugly plastic brothers and sisters, this one actually looks and feels gorgeous. The hand polished edge has a light green glow, the mirror part itself is protected against scratches and bruises on the back and it comes in one amazingly pretty gift box, padded on black velvet. The fact that it is glass makes it as unobtrusive as possible and creates a stunning visual experience and at 9.5″ x 4″ (24 x 10 cm) it is just the perfect size.
Now, who’s the fairest of them all?
