Antique Mirror Bathroom Vanity

Antique mirrors in a bathroom can add much-needed charm and character to an otherwise sterile space. Come get inspired to use this trend in your own home!

I love antique mirrors. In fact, they are one of my favorite antiques to own. And in a bathroom, they are particularly wonderful, especially in an all-white or neutral bath!

It's amazing how with all the hard surfaces, straight edges, and cool colors of a bathroom, introducing an antique mirror (usually gold) can add so much warmth and character. It keeps a white bathroom from looking too antiseptic and cold. The gold warms up the space, and the contrast of a chippy antique against all that crisp, white newness is fabulous!

And antique mirrors can be found inexpensively, too. You don't need to buy a valuable antique to get the look. Inexpensive vintage gold mirrors are easily found at flea markets, garage sales, or even on Ebay. You know I love a good reproduction, but in this case the 'chippiness' is part of the charm so I'd say go for vintage over a reproduction. They add a unique look that really can't be gotten with something store bought!

One of my all-time favorite bathrooms! I tore this out of a magazine about 10 years ago, but it's as gorgeous today as it was then! Via Amy D. Morris Interiors.

I love the gilt mirror mixed with the nickel finish on the hardware. By designer Mary Jo Donohoe via Traditional Home.

Honestly, this is just one of the prettiest bathrooms I've ever come across! Love the double antique mirrors! Via Better Homes and Gardens.

Love the contrast of this antique gold mirror in an otherwise contemporary space! Design by Leslie Sinclair via Huff Harrington.

Unlike most of my examples, this one is silver leaf, but I love it! And it still adds warmth as they used an aged, warm silver mirror. Via Chenault James Interiors.

Another absolute favorite bathroom of mine! Design by Brooke Giannetti via Veranda.

I have a reproduction gilt mirror in my downstairs powder room now, but if I ever find a real antique one that will work, I'm definitely changing it out!

Happy Friday!
