Further Information

Crafted from a TORNADO RB199 Turbine jet engine our skilled craftsmen have created a very detailed, highly polished mirror from a LP3, (Low Pressure Compressor Fan).

46 fans blades individually, mounted in its original hub with a bevel edge mirror fitted to the centre.

Many hours of skilled polishing, have created this unique mirror, looks elegant on its own, the blades beautifully reflecting the surrounding colours.

The Tornado was developed and built by Panavia Aircraft GmbH, a tri-national consortium consisting of British Aerospace (previously British Aircraft Corporation), MBB of West Germany, and Aeritalia of Italy. It first flew on 14 August 1974 and was introduced into service in 1979–1980
