When you’re browsing for the right carved plaster mirror, those designed in
Rococo,
Hollywood Regency and
Neoclassical styles are of considerable interest. Many designers have produced at least one well-made carved plaster mirror over the years, but those crafted by
Carol Canner,
Bernadette Despujols and
Gampel-Stoll are often thought to be among the most beautiful.
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
Foxing and an aged frame usually read as character rather than damage, worth weighing against a listing's condition notes.
