Antiques are the ultimate green purchase. By choosing historical pieces over newly manufactured goods, you completely eliminate the carbon footprint of modern mass production while preserving exceptional, timeless craftsmanship.

A Victorian toilet mirror, also known as a dressing glass, is a tabletop swivelling mirror crafted during the 19th century, designed to rest upon a dressing table or chest of drawers to aid in personal grooming.

These mirrors were predominantly constructed from solid mahogany and decorative flame mahogany veneers, featuring hand-dovetailed drawer joints, turned wooden knobs, and silvered glass plates.

Authentic period examples feature hand-carved scroll or S-curve upright supports, dovetailed construction on the small base drawers, original brass side fixings or wooden knobs, and subtle oxidation or foxing on the glass.

Place the mirror on top of a modern sideboard, hallway console, or contemporary vanity unit to introduce rich timber tones and historic craftsmanship into modern minimalist or transitional spaces.

Maintain the mahogany surface by dusting with a dry microfibre cloth and applying natural beeswax sparingly along the wood grain, while keeping ammonia-based glass cleaners away from the timber and mirror backing.
