Antique mirrors

Antique mirrors were born in Venice, more precisely in Murano. The first models were made of a glass plate combined with a sheet of tin dipped in mercury. Austria and Italy were the largest producers of antique mirrors and founded the first guilds. In the 17th century, the idea of the antique mirror changed: from a simple functional object, it became an integral part of the furnishings. Its purpose was to reflect light and the room's image. The main concept in the 1600s was to create a beautiful room rather than a functional one. For this reason, antique mirrors became overmantels, door toppers, wall decorations, or were made smaller to reflect candlelight. They were highly appreciated, especially by the Sun King, who was so fascinated by mirrors that he created an entire room dedicated to them: the Hall of Mirrors. Antique mirrors are among the most appreciated antique furnishings today. Thanks to them, you can decorate your rooms elegantly and tastefully. The most sought-after gilded antique mirrors are French, Roman, or Venetian. They were usually made using gilded or lacquered wood. In our catalogue you’ll find:
