Antique mirrors and Reproduction mirrors
Brights of Nettlebed have a particular affinity with mirrors: Our patrimony stems from Biggs of Maidenhead, an antique dealership established in 1866 and contributors to the publication Queen Anne & Georgian Looking Glasses, by F. Lewis Hinkley. Many of the
antique mirrors which passed through Biggs' books are now in Brights' archive, and many designs are based thereon. We have also researched antique looking glasses and girandoles from important auctions by Sotheby's and Christies over the past 15 years.
Reproduction mirrors crafted to the highest standards with attention to detail
All our Reproduction mirrors are made to the highest standard in the very few areas of the South Pacific where artisan carvers can still be found - Many have been forced to move into bigger cities to work in factories mass producing cheap reproduction furniture. We try to ensure that we employ artisan families directly, where sometimes three generations of a family will work on a piece. The tradition of carving in this area of the world is one which is culturally and religiously ingrained. It is thought that the subsequent tradition of Dutch Gilding may have originated in this area of the world at the start of the 17th Century, when the country was colonised.
