Bloomsbury style - mirrors (7)
The inspiration for this new wall mirror lies with a Bloomsbury interior for the Music Room at the Lefevre Gallery in London in 1932.
The room theme was Autumn, with 6 large painted panels around the walls. Above the fireplace was a large painted mirror, which
looks almost cartoonish(!) with it's simple shapes & colours. However, the simplicity works in it's favour to make a really
strong impact in any interior. The striking effect is further enhanced with mirror roundels set in a row down each side, reflecting
light back like jewels. Typically the mirror frame itself was just a flat surface for decoration. Within reason, the size could be
adapted to whatever size you want, as made to order, but keeping to the same proportion. It is an expensive mirror to make, not
least because of all the inset mirrors. Below are shown a few colour variations, so you change the colour to match
your interior but keep the look. Made to order, we don't discuss prices until we have agreed a spec. with a customer.

We can change the proportions or add a cornice if you prefer;

The mirror frame idea was shown with a similar piece of furniture to give you a wider choice of
interior ideas. Above left the mirror was made the same width as a 2 door matching sideboard (which
is shown in more detail in the sideboards section). The pair make a great splash of colour and visual
impact, whether in a living room or hallway. Above right we took this 1 step further to create a bar
or bookcase (see bookcase section for more info). Usually the cupboard base would just be fitted
with shelves, but we fit it out as you require. The top section could have glass shelves & top LED
lights to use it for display purposes.

The mirror frame above left was made wide, hwich shows how we can change the proportions of
such pieces. Above right is shown a low bookshelf using the mirror frame idea.
