Looks like LaBarge to me or. I cant tell, it may be inlaid with molding?. They are kind of out of style ( I have two similar LaBarge ones and the local consignment shop did not want to take them, they see so many).

I don't know, but **WOW!** That's an awesome mirror!

Thanks mtn. I checked the LaBarge website; only half the images load. But if consignment shops are turning them away, I should probably start making some phone calls and think about driving the SUV the next time I am in the greater NYC/CT area.

I have a room with high ceilings that's decorated in a very minimalist style. I think something like this would be unexpected, and if I place it carefully, will reflect very pretty scenery. I probably need at least 6.5' high. Hmmm...channeling VEB...I might have to do a jazz hand pic in front of this if I ever find one!

Are you thinking of doing a very large mirror that you just lean? That was very much in vogue a few years ago... I like it. In my last house I had a dressing room and one set of closet doors were mirrored. I preferred wood panel, so my carpenter replaced them, He then took the old door and made a big frame for it with heavy molding. He painted it nickel using metallic paint (I think RL makes it). You might be able to have someone make something for you for less than the oversized ones cost. They can even buy and glue on wooden appliques of garland, etc. Try a glass store or even a framing place.

Here is the one from my old dressing room. Not a great pic but you get the idea!

Try CL, Ebay and ... who will recall that online dealer in high quality used furniture? It was a PA co.? KevinMP got a breakfront there and I think Beagles, too.They sold used LaBarge IIRC.

Oh and I nearly forgot ... http://victoriaelizabethbarnes.com/huge-victorian-antique-mirror/

Wondering about very large mirrors leaned against a wall - are they secured somehow? Seems unsafe otherwise...

Mtn, the shop you mentioned is Stenella Antiques in Perkasie. Beautiful high end items.

What a gorgeous piece! I'm kind of mirror obsessed right now and have been pondering a "statement" mirror (or two) for our staircase wall. DH and I were perusing photos online earlier and are both mystified as to how one hangs such large, heavy items (particularly from the vantage point of stairs!). I suppose there must be mirror "installers" for hire but I shudder to think of the cost.

mtn you're a genius! So resourceful. I'm inspired. And I laugh at the "they were much in vogue a few years ago". I think I may start a separate thread about what influences our design aesthetic. I remember the precise moment mine crystalized. And your LaBarge are gorgeous. I can see why you hung on to them after the move. Thanks so much for the insight.

About securing a giant leaning mirror...yup....problematic. There must be some way to anchor it in a DIY youtube video, and I'll check VEBs articles too.

From a real property law perspective, I'm opposed to making a gorgeous mirror like this a fixture. You'll see in the photo how this mirror was hung. Cut right into the wall molding. I don't think I'd do it this way, but it certainly is safe, especially for a place of business.

I love the look of propped mirrors, but they are a catastrophe waiting to happen if you have children or pets. My daughter had a charming one on an antique mirror in her LR. Enter 3rd cat - a small, lithe black and white kitten. She jumped up, skidded, bottom of mirror slid foward taking out a lovely reticulated Ann Marie Murray (wedding present from dear friends), and two antique plates. Mirror was re-glued and new mirror installed: the rest went into the garbage. Cat was unhurt.

Stenella Antiques is the name Mtn is trying to recall. I have been haunting their site looking for mirrors and a chest for my hallway.

I called a few consignment shops and they were nice enough to text me photos of stock. Not quite what I'm looking for yet, but I'm hopeful. There is a Friedman Bros on ebay that is too small, but holy cow, it's only $295! 51x20 I would not have thought of consignment shops or ebay, so thanks for that!!!! I'll try Stenella next.
