THE BEASTY BOUTIQUE

Hand Mirrors

Most of these mirrors are either vintage or antique. The mirror side of each ranges in condition from somewhat clouded, scratched, or otherwise weathered to pristine. All can still be used as a looking glass or displayed as you like. Each mirror has the image of a woman somewhere in the embellishment.

I welcome doing mirrors on commission using an image of your choosing and perhaps including your small treasures of sentimental value with which to decorate.
