This is a stunning version of beautiful effect invented by the Austrian magician and illusionist Johann Nepomuk Hofzinser and was first performed by him c. 1857. It is often known as The Rose Mirror.
The mirror is of the highest quality made of wood and glass and arrives in a presentation case that is also used in the effect. This is closer in method to the original mirror used by Hofzinser as there are no clockwork motors used. It is easy to set and use and there is nothing to go wrong.
Not sure how many will perform it as the serious piece of theater that Hofzinser performed it when he dedicated it to “The Intelligence of Ladies,” but it is a beautiful piece and will look amazing in your collection.
Effect: The performer takes a wooden hand mirror from a case and he displays it on both sides to spectators. He covers one side with a silk hanky and then two red roses appear in the mirror.
Now with soft music the performer recites a poem about life and death; meanwhile the roses commence to slowly change their color to white.
Covering the mirror with the silk hanky again, the performer apparently removes the roses from it, the image in the mirror having vanished.
