Questions About Light Up Mirror
  • 1stDibs ExpertOctober 12, 2021
    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.

    While polished metal mirrors have existed since ancient times, glass Venetian mirrors are thought to have first been produced on the Venetian island of Murano, in Italy, beginning in the 1500s (some research points to 1300 for Venetian mirrors). Set in ornate frames frequently bedecked with gold highlights or floral leaf designs, Venetian glass mirrors were handmade by artisans using refined, expert techniques for royalty and for members of the upper class. By the 17th century, Venetian mirrors were in high demand. Because antique Venetian glass mirrors are still very popular today, there are many knockoffs on the market. Today’s authentic Venetian mirrors are still produced only on the island of Murano.

  • 1stDibs ExpertMay 3, 2024
    Mirrors were invented in ancient times. The earliest known human-made reflective surfaces date back to 4000 B.C., when artisans polished obsidian to a mirror-like finish. By the 5th century A.D., the Greeks had mastered the art of producing handheld mirrors for the purpose of grooming. On 1stDibs, explore a large collection of mirrors.
