We offer quality, custom mirror glass that has been given the “aged” appearance of an old mirror. An antique mirror is the perfect piece for certain interior designs. For example, furniture style vanities are trending, and some home decorators choose to re-purpose vintage dressers, desks, or tables and convert them into bathroom vanities. This gives the sink area a great deal of charm and personality, and you can continue the effect by hanging an “antique” mirror above your antique vanity. Antique mirrors also make lovely wall ornaments and can be used to add character and visual interest to just about any space.
We are happy to visit your home for a free mirror consultation, and our glazier will also take precise measurements and carefully inspect the relevant wall space. Your antique mirror will be fabricated to fit correctly in your space and then carefully installed by glass professionals. Our team is committed to your satisfaction with the finished product, so give us a call today at 703-257-7150!
In addition to the many standard mirrors we offer, ABC brings you antique-style mirrors so that you don’t have to scour flea markets and antique shops in order to find a mirror that harmonizes with your room’s décor. Whether you’re creating a lived-in, “layered” look or decorating your space with heirloom furniture, we can offer you new mirror glass with an aged appearance. To achieve this, acid is applied to the back of the mirror and then washed off after it has eaten away only a little bit of the reflective paint. A protective coating is then applied to the back of the “antique” mirror, and it is ready for use.
