'The history of the looking glass throughout the world is interwoven with tales of wonder mixed with fear and superstition.' So begins Geoffrey Will's volume on English Looking-Glasses, which continues with long-standing legends and beliefs surrounding reflections and mirrors, which, along with their material fragility and high cost, has accorded them value and esteem. Mirrors can prove to be wonderful additions to any home, adding depth and light to different spaces. As you will see from the photographs below, the galleries of Reindeer Antiques have many on display, varying in size and style to suit any taste. However, making mirrors in the eighteenth century was no easy task, and mirrors which survive with original glass are rare and highly prized.
