Searching for a Venetian Style Mirror

May 13, 2014



My daughter now has a true walk-in closet with the cutest cherry wallpaper. You may remember my original plan for her closet here. One of the things that changed from the original plan is the mirror. My good friend Karen suggested that I use a Venetian mirror on top of her chest of drawers instead. And the more I think about it the more I love the idea.  Venetian mirrors are richly designed and have plenty of etched details that would be perfect for a little girl.  They are elegant, feminine, romantic and can really soften up a space. 


What do you think? Do you like them?

Here are some pretty Venetian style mirrors  for your viewing pleasure.

    I love the sunburst mirror of the original plan but I have to admit that venitian mirrors are little gems!
    Like a brooch on a black dress, the details that changes everything...
    I have two venitian mirrors and I LOVE them! Timeless, elegant and feminine.

    I am on the hunt for a shield shaped Venetian mirror for a client, proving to be more difficult than I anticipated....

    I love that idea especially over wallpaper. It is super feminine and romantic so perfect for a little girl. I'm biased, becasue I have only over my daughter's changing table in her nursery. I found it on gilt groupe and it was a steal so I couldn't resist!

    I have always wanted one. I'm from Germany and my hometown is an old mirror manufacturing town where they made venetian inspired mirrors hundreds of years ago and they hang all over the hometown castle. So I totally love the look and it makes me think of home.

    I have seen these mirrors at Home Goods/ TJ Maxx and I recently saw one on Craigslist. Maybe you could check those places or E-Bay. I hope this helps.

    I have one of these above a tall jewelry armoire. I think I got it at Hobby Lobby several years ago. There are some nice reproductions if you look around!
