The Best Antique Mirrors to Upgrade Your Bathroom Style
Designer mirrors make creating a centerpiece for your home a matter of simply selecting the piece you fall in love with the most. Even better, most designer antique mirrors also can upgrade any bathroom into a place of luxury and relaxation.
In the days past, bathrooms used to be pretty simple spaces that adhered to the functions of hygiene as well as they could. For years, as a result, bathrooms also suffered from the same tiled surfaces and choices of décor that stagnated for generations, making it hard to be innovative when designing your bathroom of choice.
Thankfully, modern bathrooms have come a long way from the dark days of carpeted floors and the same brown or blue tiling that defined the bathroom’s worst décor missteps.
In today’s blog, we’re going to showcase some of the best designs we have in the store that will be able to instantly transform your bathroom and take your style to the next level.

Wibbly Wobbly
One of the fun things about many modern mirror designs is the adventurousness in their creation. Metal frames allow the perfect opportunity to get creative with a piece, making it ideal for the contemporary bathroom.
As a result of modern desires for irregularity and invention, metal-framed designs with a mid-century twist have made a huge comeback! But, whether it’s a gold, silver, or bronze frame, the fact remains that the wilder the silhouette, the more attractive your final piece will be in your bathroom.
As a word of warning, however, pieces such as what we’ve described above have the potential to feel out of place when not contextualized well enough by your bathroom’s broader aesthetic. To make sure your mirror always feels like it belongs, simply make sure that your frame matches the fitting you’ve chosen to use. So, for example, a gold-framed mirror will always look good when paired with golden bathroom finishes, such as taps and cabinet handles.
Natural Remedies
Just as other designs are making their comebacks, wood-framed mirrors are similarly making a triumphant return to the bathroom!
Newer manufacturing technology and more efficiently designed bathrooms have meant that steam and moisture aren’t as easy to get stuck in your bathroom after taking a shower. This means that, finally, natural materials have been able to come back to the bathroom.
Choose from Boho or Rattan style mirrors and give your bathroom the calming organic vibe you’ve always wanted.
Gold Class Rewards
While it would have been seen as insane in previous years to suggest a massive centerpiece work for your bathroom, recent trends have pointed in an entirely different direction.
Large gold framed mirrors, especially those with a bit of French flair, have become one of the most trendy options for new bathrooms. Mantle-orientated pieces, such as above, have found themselves being used as perfect bathroom mirrors as they fit comfortably above a bathroom counter and sink without sacrificing their grandness in the process.
