Finding Your Ideal Mirror

It’s something you do dozens of times a day. Whether you’re washing your face, brushing your teeth, putting on your makeup or just a quick glance as you’re dashing out the door. Where would we be without mirrors? First invented in 1835 by a German chemist, who developed a process for applying metallic silver in a thin layer onto a pane of glass, mirrors are now a part of our everyday lives and we’d probably be lost without them. Mirrors are great for eye-catching interior design as well as for commercial purposes, so if you’re looking for a ‘framed mirror’ or custom mirror to complement your home or business, look no further than Dunstable Glass. They have been supplying bespoke mirrors for over 40 years and can create beautiful and practical pieces to suit every taste.

What is Mirrored Glass?

To give glass a mirrored surface, technicians apply a metal coating to one side, sealing it with a protective layer to create the finished reflective effect.

Mirrors in Interior Design

Mirrors have long been a simple yet stunningly effective design tool for interior designers and DIY lovers alike. Their reflective surfaces maximise and enhance the light flowaround spaces, making rooms appear larger and brighter. For smaller rooms and offices, using mirrors is an affordable and easy way to create the illusion of more space and brighten up a dark room. Mirrors can be customised to suit any style or design, in a range of shapes and colours. Framed mirrors can be personalised to suit different tastes, using gilded frames or reclaimed wood, for example, to create a really stylish effect.
