Mirror work can be traced back to 13th century Persia, and made its way to India during the Mughal era. The use of mirrors and the craft of mirror work originate from traditional Islamic beliefs—the mirrors help to trap or blind the evil eye, reflecting bad luck and evil spirits away from the wearer.
