Bespoke Mirrors
For over 50 years.
Over the last 50 years, The Looking Glass of Bath has built up a fine reputation for making and designing bespoke mirrors and frames in predominantly traditional designs, often incorporating antique vintage mirror glass, which is produced in their silvering workshop, to give the finished mirror an authentic vintage look and feel..
However, responding to repeated requests to make a range of more contemporary mirrors made to size, they have created a new collection of mirror designs which reflect the current trend for more minimalist and industrial inspired interiors.
We have many styles of bespoke mirrors. All of our mirrors can be made to any size to order (made to measure).
Common FAQ’s About Our Mirrors
Here you can find a range of common facts and questions about bespoke mirrors.
The style of the mirror should reflect the furnishings in the room, whether they are traditional or contemporary.
The made to measure mirror should not over power the room by being too big and dominant.
A trick we use is to take some cooking foil and blutak it to the wall first in order to see what size of mirror looks good and what reflections will be seen in the mirror when it’s made.
The mirror glass itself usually is the same; however, if you have a bespoke mirror made, you can choose the frame design and size that best suits the style of the room.
Any glass in a mirror, when hung that is above your eyeline, will reflect the ceiling and therefore will make the room seem larger and more open and spacious. Conversely, if you wish to make a tall room feel more cosy and intimate, choose to have a mirror made that is lower in height so that it reflects the pictures, curtains, etc. of the room, rather than the ceiling.
With an overmantel mirror hanging over a fireplace, it is best to have the mirror made so that the width does not exceed the width of the uprights of the mantel shelf.
