The centre of the mirror is oval and it is rather bulged. It is divided into foursections and bracken leaves were incised. This is a Lelang tile and bracken design is a very typical type of decoration in Lelang tiles. Bracken leaves represent Taoist hermits and aspiration for this kind of paradise.
