Friedman Brothers
A decorative wall art company especially known for its ornate round and rectangular framed mirrors designed in the Rococo, Louis XVI and other styles, Friedman Brothers is a family-owned and operated brand with a history that goes back over 100 years.
Friedman Brothers’ two namesake siblings emigrated from England to the United States at the dawn of the 20th century, bringing with them Old World–style wood-carving and gold-leafing techniques. One of the oldest decorative wall art companies in America, the Florida-based brand has long specialized in a variety of interior design settings and furniture, such as wall sconces, bed canopies and other fixtures. In particular, Friedman Brothers is revered for its variety of mirrors.
Through partnerships with the Colonial Williamsburg Foundation, the Historic Charleston Foundation and other organizations, Friedman Brothers has cemented a reputation for its reproduction of traditional handcrafted vintage and antique mirrors. The company produces a range of mirrors in all shapes and sizes, including neoclassical-style mirrors with gilded wood frames and ornamental motifs, dramatic wall mirrors that prominently feature hallmarks of Asian design and other varieties.
