Antique Italian Circa 1910 Venetian Etched Glass Heart Shaped Wall Mirror

A beautiful antique Italian Venetian wall mirror, circa 1910 , with an elegant heart-shaped form and richly decorative etched glass detailing. The mirror has a romantic early 20th century Venetian character, with shaped mirrored panels, floral engraving, and delicate applied glass ornamentation throughout.

The central mirror plate is framed by shaped border panels, each decorated with etched floral motifs, scrolls, leaves, and dotted detailing. The upper crest has a wonderful open heart-like design, giving the piece a graceful and highly decorative silhouette. The mirror is further embellished with small raised glass flower heads and cut glass details, catching the light beautifully and adding to its refined Venetian charm.

The mirror retains its original glass , which displays beautiful age-related foxing, spotting, and silvering loss. These natural signs of age help confirm the mirror's period character and give it the soft, timeworn look so desirable in genuine antique Venetian glass.

There are further signs of age and use, including wear to the mirrored panels, small marks, and patina throughout, all consistent with its antique nature. Rather than detracting from the piece, these details add depth, authenticity, and faded glamour.

The reverse shows traditional construction with a wooden back and hanging chain, consistent with its age and use. This mirror would make a striking decorative feature in a bedroom, dressing room, hallway, bathroom, powder room, or romantic antique-inspired interior.

A charming antique Italian Venetian etched glass wall mirror, circa 1910, with original foxed glass, heart-shaped crest, floral decoration, and wonderful old-world elegance.

The price shown on the listing is just a guide. Please get in touch with us directly to request a quote before buying and not after.

Deliveries & Collections

Before purchasing an item, please ask us for a quote by sending us your postcode. If you are happy with the quotation, we will schedule it.

The courier that will be delivering your item will require help to unload. The price that will be quoted will always be based on this assumption. If you need two men, the initial quote will change. It usually is £20-40 on top of the original quote.

If you need an item carried upstairs, the courier charges extra. They charge £10-20 per flight. However, if you have a working elevator and the thing fits inside, then there should be no extra charge.

We prefer that the courier fees be paid by yourself directly to the company; the contract for delivery is between you and the chosen courier.

Alternatively, you can arrange the delivery yourself, or if you would like to collect, you can collect from our warehouse in Pulborough RH20 1DF.

Worldwide Shipping

We offer to coordinate and schedule deliveries to the rest of the world, all you need to do is send us your Postcode/Zip-code, and we will send you a quote.

Delivery can take 2-4 weeks within Europe and Air freight for countries outside of the EU; on some rare occasions, it can take slightly longer.

Sea freight delivery can take anywhere between 6-12 weeks.

Caring for your items

Vintage period and original items, such as leather seating, will always have a natural patina in the form of cracking, creasing and wear.

We recommend regular waxing to ensure no moisture is lost and to keep out of sunlight.

For Hand-Dyed leather items, we don't recommend placing them in direct sunlight for prolonged periods, as they will dry out and fade.

For wood, we recommend regular, thorough cleaning and waxing also.
