Finding the Right Mantel-mirrors-fireplace-mirrors for You
Antique and vintage fireplace mirrors and mantel mirrors are sophisticated, classic pieces of decor, with the large size of fireplace mirrors making them centerpiece objects. They add character to any room and also create the appearance of space. Fireplace mirrors and mantel mirrors, like any well-placed antique or vintage mirror, can act as a source of light and make a room seem bigger than it is.
Fireplace mirrors were once a status symbol, as only the wealthiest could afford these big, beautiful pieces for their homes. In the 1500s and 1600s, the Venetian glass industry produced mirrors that were luxury items. Their painstaking creation was the result of a secretive process using melted tin, limiting their size and availability.
In the late 17th century, French glassmaker Bernard Perrot radically transformed mirrors. By casting glass into large, flat slabs, his work grew into an international market for mantel mirrors. These mirrors were often set in decorated frames.
French homes transitioned to lower fireplaces and mantels so tall mantel mirrors could fit above them. The design of fireplace mirrors reflected architectural trends. Some in the mid-18th century featured paintings, while others had delicate carvings.
By the 1800s, mantel mirrors had become more widely available. This reflected a dramatic change in glass mass-production technology, which made oversize mirrors more accessible, leading to their proliferation across the globe.
Today, mantel mirrors are still highly regarded statement pieces with an enduring reputation for elegance. Their versatility has allowed them to branch out beyond the fireplace. Their reflectiveness allows them to amplify a sumptuous painting in a bedroom or capture the tiling of a bathroom.
From mid-century modern designs to pieces created in Louis XVI style, there is a mirror for every room and every occasion on 1stDibs.
Questions About Fireplace Mantel With Mirror
- Why do fireplaces have mantels?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertMarch 29, 2024Fireplaces have mantels to prevent smoke from entering the room. Initially, mantels functioned as hoods and were installed to protect an interior space and nearby objects from the extreme heat generated by a fireplace.
Today, fireplaces and mantels can be seen as a focal point in your decor. Fireplaces were once essential fixtures in a home. Even as HVAC systems would eventually see to it that fireplaces weren’t a necessity, no mechanically engineered thermal heating and ventilation technology can replicate the feeling of warmth and camaraderie that a flickering fire guarantees.
Find antique and vintage fireplaces and mantels on 1stDibs. - 1stDibs ExpertOctober 12, 2021A fireplace mantel surround is an object that extends from the fireplace's exterior wall into the room and frames the opening. It consists of the sides and a mantel, although it may or may not contain the hearth, which is the base of the fireplace. Fireplace surrounds assist in making a fireplace more of a centerpiece and focal point for a home, as well as offering a shelf space above the fireplace for personal objects to be displayed. Find a variety of antique and vintage fireplace mantel surrounds on 1stDibs.
- 1stDibs ExpertNovember 2, 2021The ideal depth of a fireplace mantel is 7 inches. This allows enough room to display decorative objects such as candles, figurines, photo frames and more. Shop a collection of antique, vintage and contemporary fireplace mantels from some of the world’s top dealers on 1stDibs.
- 1stDibs ExpertMarch 31, 2023What color is good for a fireplace mantel depends on your space. Look for shades that complement your palette and fit the interior design theme of the room. Generally, neutral colors like black, white, gray and brown coordinate with many other hues, but other colors may work, too. Find a variety of fireplace mantels on 1stDibs.
- 1stDibs ExpertOctober 12, 2021The average width of a fireplace mantel is 6 inches wider than the fireplace on either side. It can occasionally be even wider. While deciding on the right width for your space, factors to be considered are firebox dimensions, fireplace surround dimensions, hearth and room size. Shop a range of antique and vintage fireplace tools and mantels on 1stDibs.
- 1stDibs ExpertMarch 29, 2024A mantel shelf is typically mounted 12 inches above the inner section of a fireplace, which is called the firebox.
Today, fireplaces and mantels can be seen as a focal point in your decor. Vintage fireplaces and mantels have earned their coveted position as desirable focal points in any room over the course of a staggering evolution in design that has yielded everything from intricately carved works of limestone to sleek works of wood paneling and rolled steel.
Find antique and vintage fireplaces and mantels on 1stDibs. - 1stDibs ExpertAugust 24, 2021Yes, you can paint a marble fireplace mantel.
