Toilet mirrors, also known as dressing glasses, became popular in the 18th century during the Georgian period as dressing tables evolved. They were designed to sit atop a chest of drawers or a dedicated dressing table to facilitate grooming.

These pieces were typically constructed from fine timbers such as mahogany, walnut, or oak, often featuring decorative veneers, stringing, and small brass knobs or escutcheons on the supporting drawers.

Authentic pieces often feature period construction details such as hand-cut dovetail joints in the drawers, old secondary woods like pine or oak linings, and original mercury-silvered glass with subtle imperfections or oxidation.

An antique dressing glass adds warmth and historical contrast when placed on a modern minimalist console table, a chest of drawers in a bedroom, or even used as a functional vanity piece in a contemporary bathroom.

Keep the piece out of direct sunlight to prevent the wood finish from fading. Clean the wooden frame with a soft, dry cloth and avoid harsh chemical cleaners on both the wood and the antique mirror plate.
