Gold Round Lippan Art Mirror | 5mm | 50g - Shisha Embroidery & Craft

Round is the classic Lippan and shisha shape, the one traditional motifs are built around. These gold round mirrors measure about 5mm and come in a 50g pack of loose mirrors, small enough for close fills, fine borders and the detail inside a motif. The warm gold tone reads richer than plain silver against clay, wood and dark fabric, which is why it suits festive panels and gifting pieces.

Creative Uses and Project Ideas

• Set into Lippan clay relief on an MDF base for a wall panel
• Stitch into shisha embroidery on a kurta yoke, dupatta or cushion
• Fill the centre of a mandala or a peacock motif
• Glue onto terracotta pots, diyas and pooja thalis for festive decor

Compatibility

• Works with: Lippan clay and mud relief, air dry clay, MDF and wood bases, canvas, cotton and silk fabric, terracotta and resin
• Pairs well with: Lippan clay, white cement, craft glue, MDF bases, embroidery thread and gold or silver liner paint
• Not suitable for: Machine washing, dishwashers, outdoor walls exposed to rain, or unsupervised use by children

Before You Buy

• This pack is sold by weight at 50g, not by count, so we do not state a piece count. A 50g pack of the smallest size holds far more mirrors than the same weight of the largest.
• These are cut glass. Edges can be sharp, so tip them out onto a tray rather than into your palm, and keep them away from small children.
• All sizes in this shape share one photograph. Use the 5mm figure above for scale, not the photograph.
• Gold tone varies a little between production batches. If a panel needs one consistent shade, buy the quantity for the whole piece in one order.
• For Lippan work press the mirror into the clay while it is still soft. On MDF, fabric or a finished surface, fix it with craft glue and let it cure before the piece is moved.

Frequently Asked Questions

How many mirrors are in a 50g pack?
The pack is sold by weight rather than by count, so the number varies. At about 5mm you get noticeably more pieces per pack than the larger sizes in this shape.

Which size should I pick for my design?
At 5mm this is small enough for close fills, fine borders and the detail inside a motif. This shape also comes from 4mm up to 18mm, so pick smaller for fills and detail, larger for the centre of a panel.

Can I use these on fabric as well as on clay?
Yes. They stitch into shisha embroidery on cotton and silk, and they press into Lippan clay or glue onto MDF, wood, terracotta and canvas. Do not machine wash a finished piece.
