Finding the Right trumeau-mirrors for You
Whether complemented by a lovely painting or detailed carved patterns, antique and vintage trumeau mirrors are instant attention-grabbers that add depth and character to a room.
Trumeau mirrors, also known as pier glass, emerged in 18th-century France. The original trumeau mirrors were set in large, rectangular wood paneling, or boiserie, that frequently incorporated carvings or paintings. The trumeau mirror was especially popular with the upper middle class in the 1700s who had disposable income to decorate their homes like the wood-paneled estates of the elite.
As mirrors became more widely available to the general public, the trumeau gained prominence in fashionable home decor. While trumeau initially referred to a mirror set in a wall lodged between two doors or windows, it gradually shifted to describing a mirror positioned above a mantel.
Though trumeau mirrors come in a variety of styles, they generally fall into one of two categories: those that incorporate painted art and those that feature carved motifs. The decorative elements are typically above the mirror on the top half of the wooden panel.
