We found this video when looking for interior design shots. We are very often alone in what makes us laugh so we apologise if this does not amuse you! (Only problem is, we can't help thinking the pink genie lamp is pretty cool).

All mirrored furniture matches really, but sometimes it's nice to know that your pieces are meant to be together. So here's the low down on our handles.

So what’s with the outdoor images?

Well, for a start off it’s in our name.  If you start something you’ve gotta finish, right? Well when we started out we didn’t have anywhere sensible to photograph our mirrored furniture, so we took the first bits and pieces out into the garden where it didn’t reflect our somewhat questionable interior surroundings.  If you look closely at the images you will see some of our original products – the mirrored chest and bedsides pictured in front of a green fence, with sheds, bird feeders and goodness knows what in the back ground. When we moved into sensible premises we decided it was best to continue to photograph outside for the reasons outlined below. Before we knew it we were getting more adventurous with our pictures, hanging chandeliers from trees, setting ornate beds up in the snow and thinking of a permanent company name...

About Venetian Mirrored Furniture

Why Venetian glass?

In the Middle Ages Venice was the glassmaking centre of the Western world. By the end of the 13th century the government had moved the glass industry to the island of Murano. The name of this island is synonymous with high quality glass of beautiful design. So not only does Venetian glass have a long and illustrious history, it also embodies style, elegance, sophistication and luxury.

Venetian mirrored furniture

The Venetian mirrored furniture style that is so popular today dates from  the 18th and 19th century. The elaborate ,ornate style that we associate with venetian mirrored furniture has a baroque influence. It is opulent and luxurious making venetian mirrored furniture a striking choice. Whenever a style is revisited a new modern twist is added and Venetian mirrored furniture is no exception. As well as the ornate rococco styles found in the Venetian mirror designs, modern taste also dictates more sleek clean lines (these are evident in our cabinets and console tables)  The combination of these 2 opposing styles is one of the most striking and appealing elements of contemporary interior design.


 

An article on the history of Venetian glass furniture

If you happen to be as obsessed with glass furniture as we are, you may be interested in the following article. We explore how glass came about, how it was shaped and refined to fulfil different uses, and finally how the Venetian glass furniture you see today evolved throughout the ages.  It is fascinating to find out how the decorative glass furniture, with which we adorn our homes today, has its origins in the mists of time.

How glass began

A form of glass, created by volcanic action on certain types of rock has existed since the beginnings of time itself.  It is believed that some Stone Age tribes made use of this naturally occurring glass, to make tools and other objects. (Believe it or not they weren’t making glass furniture at this stage, although we like to think there was the odd Gay Stone Age couple boasting a cave full of mirrored furniture).
