Mirrored in fake imitations
The small hamlet of Aranmula situated on the banks of the Pampa river is known internationally for its unique metal mirror, Aranmula Kannadi. This marvellous piece of ancient metallurgy is now facing threat from fake imitations.
The ancient technology behind it is restricted to a very few families of craftsmen.
But now others are trying their hand in the unique mirror-making process.
