Brass
Vintage mirrors have long been a measure of craftsmanship, from gilded Rococo frames to the sunburst shapes that became a signature of mid-century design.
Styles to Know
An arched or sunburst mirror reads more decorative, while a plain rectangular frame lets the room around it stand out. Hang one above a vintage vanity or a mid-century modern dresser, or lean a larger floor mirror against the wall as a standalone piece.
How to Choose the Right Vintage Mirror

A beveled edge refers to a piece of furniture’s edges that are not perpendicular to one another, creating a wider angle along the outer frame. Mirrors and wooden pieces can have beveled edges.
A beveled mirror is a mirror whose periphery has been cut to form an angle, creating the appearance of a framed edge around the piece.
