I love antique mirrors. In fact, they are one of my favorite antiques to own. And in a bathroom, they are wonderful. Especially an all-white or neutral bath. It's amazing how with all the hard surfaces, straight edges, and cool colors of a bathroom, introducing an antique mirror (usually gold) can add so much warmth and character. It keeps a white bathroom from looking too antiseptic and cold.

Honestly, this is just one of the prettiest bathrooms I've ever come across. Those double (!) antique mirrors are amazing! |

Unlike most of my examples, this one is silver leaf, but I love it! And it still adds warmth because it's such an aged, warm silver. By Chenault James Interiors. |

I have a reproduction gilt mirror in my downstairs powder room now, but if I ever find a real antique one that will work, I'm definitely changing it out!
Happy Friday!
