What is the best vanity mirror with lights?

The best vanity mirror is a matter of preference, as you’ll want to think about space and how your furniture is arranged with respect to where you want to put it. On 1stDibs, you can find a variety of antique and vintage vanity mirrors with lights to choose from.

What is the best lighting for a vanity mirror?

The best lighting for a vanity mirror can be brought about by placing two wall-mounted sconces on either side of the mirror at eye level. This creates cross-illumination. Fixtures that emit light that is as close to white as possible should be chosen with a high CRI (around 90-100) for the most accurate colors. Bulbs in the 2,500–3100 Kelvin ‘soft white' range are suitable for normal bathroom use, as well as for makeup application. Find a range of vanity lights on 1stDibs.

What mirror shape works best above a vanity?

An arched or sunburst mirror adds a decorative focal point above a vanity, while a plain rectangular mirror keeps the attention on the vanity itself.

Does a vintage vanity come with a mirror included?

It depends on the piece: some vanity sets include an attached or freestanding mirror, while others are sold as a table only. Listings specify what's included.

Finding the Right Vanities for You

Vintage vanities trace back to the dressing tables of 18th-century France, where the poudreuse held powders and mirrors for a lady's toilette. The look later split in two: the gilded flourish of Art Deco and Louis XV, and the pared-back simplicity of the mid-century makeup vanity.

Styles to Know

Mid-century makeup vanities with slim tapered legs are seeing strong search interest, though Art Deco vanities with mirrored or lacquered finishes remain a popular choice for more formal bedrooms. A vintage mirror completes the piece if it doesn't already include one, and a vintage table lamp adds flattering light.

How to Choose the Right Vintage Vanity

A vanity works best near a window or another source of natural light, worth keeping in mind when planning where it will sit, and the knee-clearance height is worth checking against the stool you intend to pair with it. Each piece comes from a vetted 1stDibs seller, with era, designer and condition detailed. Backed by the 1stDibs Promise on every order.
