Antique Mirrors Bring the Past Alive

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Tacoma, Washington, United States of America (Free-Press-Release.com) January 10, 2012 -- For many homeowners and apartment dwellers the most common place for a mirror is the bathroom. This is the one room in the house that is always equipped with at least one mirror. However, using mirrors throughout the home as a form of wall decoration has been shown to provide more light and a sense of bigger space. There's also the aesthetic quality to consider when selecting a mirror to provide that final accent to a room. The wide selection of antique mirrors offered by Oval and Round Mirrors is the perfect choice for such an accent.

A true antique mirror created during the 1800s was made from a casting of an actual wood carving. Finish was then applied using a faux wood grain method that is referred to in decorating circles as "tiger striping." The artisans who create the mirrors for Oval and Round Mirrors have perfectly replicated these finishes for their antique mirror catalog. Among the popular selections in this specific product line are the Vintage Walnut, Vintage Cherry or Burlwood colored frames.

As described on the Oval and Round Mirrors website, an antique mirror can be just the thing that redefines a living space. “An oval bath mirror for example is becoming more and more popular in all kinds of design settings. We often try to take a rectangular shape and add color, texture, depth or width in an effort to add some definition to a room when the simple substitution of an oval mirror can achieve our desired end instantly, simply, and at a lower cost.”

The antique mirrors provided by Oval and Round Mirrors can be ordered with or without the bevels. Every mirror sold on the site is also ready to hang and comes with the hanging hardware that allows for either vertical or horizontal hanging preinstalled. This gives decorators many options to choose from.

Beyond the antique mirrors offered at Oval and Round Mirrors, there are many other contemporary mirror selections to choose from. All of the mirrors are available in a variety of colors and sizes that are sure to elevate any surroundings.
