Spiralling Mirror Frame

The overwhelming colouring of the portrait of Adele Bloch-Bauer, the original inspiration for this project, is gold, though there are touches of red to recreate Klimt's extraordinary palette. I have used metallic braids in five colours: a silvery gold, a gold, a red gold, a copper and a bronze. To create extra variety of colour and texture a range of stranded cottons is integrated into the design.
