At one time, mirrors were objects of illusion and mystery; they celebrated reflection and beauty. Appearing in mythology and poetry, mirrors have symbolized vanity and self-absorption as well as representing the human soul and the virtue of self-knowledge. Until the nineteenth century mirrors were precious objects, rare and difficult to make. As such, they were highly treasured, and passed on from generation to generation.

Our mirrors pick up the thread of this tradition. The quality of the glass itself is an essential element of our mirrors. The glass may be cast and polished by hand, and mirrors are hand silvered in our shop. We design the mirror and frame in concert, so that both are integral to the finished piece.
