The Shillingford, a stunning vintage garden mirror, exudes an unparalleled sense of artistry and allure. As one beholds its exquisite form, they are greeted by the intricate and entrancing thrilled-scroll design nestled within a pointed arch-top. Such a delicate pattern evokes the fluidity of a gently cascading water fountain, as the scrolls splay out from a beaded point, masterfully crafting a symmetrical and harmonious sense of movement.
Incorporating the natural world into its design, the Shillingford radiates an aura of elegance and grace that captivates the beholder. The detailed craftsmanship is a testament to the mirror’s natural inspiration, effortlessly drawing the eye and capturing the imagination.
Continuing the exploration of its intricate composition, one is led to the bottom rectangular extension of the pointed-arch frame. Here, a dual-formation of linear window grilles is unveiled, adorned with beaded points at the grille intersections. This delightful touch serves to accentuate the structure, adding a pleasant sense of depth and dimension.
The classic-style grilles are separated by a thicker window mullion, which lends an authentic representation and atmosphere to the piece. This thoughtful design choice enhances the sensation of a window hanging gracefully within your garden or indoor space.
Finally, as the gaze returns to the vintage garden mirror, one cannot help but be enthralled by the Shillingford’s enchanting presence. A piece of such beauty and craftsmanship is certain to become a cherished focal point in any space it graces.

A plastic sheet board sits behind the mirror panel to keep it in place within the frame while helping to further protect it from both accidents and the elements.

If there’s one thing this piece can do well, it’s moving natural light into spaces that were previously without. So, we invite you to have fun and experiment with ways you could beam light into those shadier spots within your garden.
Installation & Hanging Guidelines
This mirror will come with one, two, or three keyholes on the reverse of the metal frame, which can be used to hang it onto either screws or hooks.
To hang this mirror, attach it directly to wall screws (not supplied) that are equally spaced from the centre of the keyholes. DO NOT STRING.
Please note that screws and Rawl plugs are not included with this item.
We recommend using a competent trades person to install this mirror in a secure and safe manner. As when hung outside, strong winds can cause weak fastenings to come loose.
Similarly for the same reason, we do not recommend leaning this mirror against walls or trees outside without the frame being securely fastened in some way.
This mirror is not only confined to use within the outdoor realm, as it can also work well indoors hung on walls throughout your home.
Cleaning & Maintenance
Should the glass require cleaning, utilize a standard glass cleaning spray or a water/white-vinegar mixture spray, then wipe the glass using a lint-free, scratch-free cloth for a flawless, streak-free result.
When cleaning the frame, refrain from using bleach or harsh chemicals. Opt to wipe it with a slightly damp with water lint-free cloth.

A Poem For You
In a corner of splendour, where roses entwine,
A secret awaits, a treasure to find.
A reflection of beauty, a portal through time,
A vintage garden mirror, in nature enshrined.
Petals and leaves whisper stories untold,
In this hallowed space, where memories unfold.
A magical world, in silver and green,
The vintage garden mirror, a sight to be seen.
As light dances upon its timeworn frame,
Its glass reveals secrets, in whispers of flame.
The sun casts its rays, a brushstroke of gold,
And the vintage garden mirror, its wonders extol.
For amid the lush foliage, a truth does reside,
A gateway to the past, where memories hide.
Echoes of laughter, and love’s tender sighs,
The vintage garden mirror, a passage through skies.
Oh, the stories it holds, of days long ago,
In its shimmering glass, they eternally glow.
A bridge to the old, a link to the new,
The vintage garden mirror, reflections imbued.
So, step through the threshold, and let time unfurl,
A canvas of memories, in colours that swirl.
A waltz through the ages, a dance of desire,
The vintage garden mirror, our hearts do inspire.
