Finding the Right Floor-mirrors-full-length-mirrors for You

Bringing antique and vintage floor mirrors and full-length mirrors into your home is a no-brainer. The right mirror in the bedroom, bathroom and by the door in your home’s entryway — for last-minute accessorizing, of course — can make all the difference.

However, knowing where to strategically place your mirror can help illuminate your interior design choices and add a glamorous accent to any room.

A large beveled floor mirror can add depth to a space — particularly if you’re working with small rooms. It can echo the contour lines of wall paneling and make a bedroom appear larger than it is. Both floor mirrors and full-length mirrors create a window-like effect, reflecting light and brightening the room. Hanging a large mirror opposite a window will flood a room with natural light and engender a feeling of spaciousness.

Consider the placement of a mirror in the room: Displaying vases, boxes and other decorative objects in front of a mirror reflects these items, drawing attention to a prized collection and emphasizing their visual qualities for dramatic effect.

A large antique wall mirror or celebrated iconic design such as Paul Evans’s Patchwork mirror or the flashy, sensuous Ultrafragola mirror created by Ettore Sottsass can be positioned as the focal point in a living room or dining room.

When your mirror isn’t the star of the show, it can be used to enhance a focal point. Hang abstract art — a grouping of paintings or drawings, perhaps — on the wall opposite the mirror to establish narrative character in a space and create an intriguing color pattern.

It is important to consider the size, shape and frame of a mirror. Most full-length mirrors have a traditional rectangular shape, but postmodern mirrors may offer more variety. For a mirror that makes a bold statement, Art Deco mirrors typically feature geometrically pronounced frames that stand out in a room.

Add light to your interiors while providing an artistic accent to any room. Browse the selection of antique and vintage floor mirrors and full-length mirrors on 1stDibs today.

Questions About French Cheval Mirror
  • 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022
    While a cheval mirror is typically a standing mirror that rests on the floor, you can hang the mirror with the right hardware. A picture-hanging kit that can bear the weight of the mirror should do the trick! On 1stDibs, find a collection of cheval mirrors from some of the world’s top sellers.
  • 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022
    A Cheval mirror is often referred to as horse dressing glass or psyche. The term is often used to describe mirrors that are tall and suspended between two pillars with horizontal bars and four legs. It is sometimes referred to as a dressing mirror, often seen as a full-length mirror with a freestanding frame that allows the mirror to tilt up and down. Shop a range of antique and vintage Cheval glass on 1stDibs.
