Niyaz Silver Mirror

This mirror captures the classic Venetian aesthetic through the use of individual, hand-cut glass pieces that are meticulously etched by hand. This artisanal approach creates a sophisticated, multi-layered look that adds depth and texture to your walls, distinguishing it from mass-produced, single-sheet mirrors. The silver frame finish further enhances its transitional appeal, allowing it to blend seamlessly with both vintage-inspired and modern decor.

With a width of nearly 32 inches, this mirror is an excellent tool for maximizing space in urban apartments or smaller entryways. By strategically hanging it opposite a window or light source, the multi-angled, hand-cut glass pieces reflect light throughout the room, creating an illusion of depth and a much brighter, more open atmosphere. Its unique heart shape serves as a focal point that draws the eye upward, further enhancing the sense of vertical space.

Yes. While the hand-etched glass elements are delicate in appearance, they are securely attached to a solid wood backing. This structural support is essential for maintaining the integrity of the hand-cut glass pieces and ensures the mirror remains stable and safe once mounted. This combination of fine glasswork and a sturdy wood frame provides the long-term durability expected of a high-quality accent piece.

To preserve the intricate hand-etched details and the silver finish, our experts recommend using a soft, lint-free cloth lightly dampened with a mixture of water and a small amount of mild dish soap. Avoid spraying glass cleaner directly onto the surface, as liquid can seep behind the individual glass pieces and damage the silvering or the wood backing. Always buff the surface dry immediately with a clean, dry cloth to prevent streaks.

The heart shape and Venetian etching make this mirror a versatile "transitional" piece. It works beautifully as a statement accent over a bedroom headboard or a console table in a foyer. For a cohesive look, our design guidelines suggest centering the mirror at eye level. Given its 31.5-inch width, it is perfectly scaled to hang above furniture pieces that are approximately 45 to 60 inches wide, providing a balanced and intentional aesthetic.

While this mirror is built with a strong wood back, it is primarily designed for dry environments like living rooms, bedrooms, or hallways. In high-humidity areas like a bathroom or a non-climate-controlled coastal porch, moisture can potentially affect the wood backing and the delicate hand-applied glass over time. If used in a home in a humid climate, ensure the room is well-ventilated to protect the artisanal hand-etched finish and the structural integrity of the frame.
