The Roman lead mirror from 100–300 AD was a simple reflective tool used in everyday life. Made from lead or a lead-tin mix, it was shaped into a flat circle and polished to reflect images. Though not very clear, it helped people, especially women, with grooming. Some mirrors had bronze frames or decorations, showing they were also used by the wealthy. These mirrors show how Romans combined usefulness with style.
