Antique mirrors
In period homes lit by candlelight or daylight, wall mirrors played an important role. They maximised whatever available light there was, whilst adding a richness and sumptuousity to any interior. At Harvey's we also deal in antique dressing mirrors, both cheval and dressing table top, whenever the opportunity presents itself. We also occasionally have travelling or campaign mirrors in stock.
