A round piece of plate glass is heated and slumped over a curved steel form then silvered on the convex side. Better ones were made by grinding and polishing a convex surface to one side of flat window glass then silvered on the curved side.

How does a concave mirror focus light?
Concave mirrors used to focus light on a point, such as in a solar collector, would be in the shape of either a Hyperbolic or Parabolic section. The reason for the xxxxbolic section is that they both have focal points (foci?). any light coming into the mirror at any angle is reflected to this focal point. Think of using a magnifying glass to burn ants... you need to move the glass higher or lower to the ground until you get that bright dot of concentrated light/heat and then you can burn ants. The small white dot of light/heat is the focal point of you magnifying glass. Hope that helps..

What mirror is used in a magnifying mirror?
we can use convex lens(having tapered ends) for that. but the magnifying capability depends on the power the lens. A magnifying glass works by creating a magnified virtual image of an object behind the lens. The distance between the lens and the object must be shorter than the focal lenght of the lens for this to occur. Otherwise, the image appears smaller and inverted, and can be used to project images onto surfaces.
