    they say :
    All mirrors have been copyrighted by Caryn Moberly since registering the design of her first River Mirror in 2001.

    Copyright does not mean trademarked. While you cannot copy the persons art work, it's certainly not a trademark-able or protect-able.

    In other words you can make mirrors with wooden frames that have similarities to a river layout, once it is not passing yourself off as that particular artist or using the exact same designs / processes to replicate her results.
