Venetian Mirrors.




Authentic Venetian mirrors are made exclusively in Murano and are prized for the craftsmanship which goes into the hand cutting, beveling, engraving, painting, silvering and mounting to create the spectacular effects for which these mirrors are known. Mediterraneo's extraordinary portfolio of mirrors travels the history of design: from the elaborate engraved and beveled designs of the seventeenth and eighteenth century, through the fanciful shapes with colored glass twist and flower decorations of the nineteenth century, to the geometric rigor of the deco period.
