WHAT’S ITS HISTORY?

The Venetian style of mirrors revolves around the idea of the mirror being ‘frameless’, whereby the most of the mirror front is made using mirror glass, with occasional minor detailing around the trim.

This style of mirrors goes back into antiquity, developed through the eras of the Mediterranean empires and beyond.

The classic-clean Venetian dream style of ‘framelessness’ has continued to this day, and the Triscombe mirror being no different to this take on ancient mirror fashion, fully taking responsibility in its role of traditional continuity.

WHAT’S IT GOOD FOR & WHAT DOES IT GO WITH?

This mirror brings forth the aspect of triangular sacred geometry around its frameless edge. This striking symbology is very subtle, dignified and rooted in the very core of natural design itself.

In the quarries of Triscombe, on occasion a gem stone would be unturned through the rubble and grey, which in many ways is what this mirror represents with its dazzling yet subtle, triangular crystal-like design formation. A gem found in the rough.

This aspect of beautiful geometry makes this mirror fairly universal in terms of what styles it can compliment.

It could be placed in the bathroom as a large wall mirror, reflecting the idea of the water room through the idea of water crystals frozen in time.

The refined and subtle Venetian aspect of this mirror also allows for it to be placed on almost any indoor wall without creating an imbalance in the interior design style. Some would say that it’s a very ‘Zen’ mirror, and as such the possibilities are endless.

WHAT’S IT MADE OF?

Mirror glass makes up the entirety of the mirror front, with it’s small subtle bevelled edges on both the main panel and the triangular elements.

The mirror glass is then mounted onto a plywood bonded with soft black felt, so as to provide a neutral colour for the largely unseen reverse, and to provide a rigid backing to keep the mirror strong.
