ABOUT US
CREATE THAT "WOW FACTOR"
At TCMC we utilise international and British craftsmen in order to create truly unique mirrors at affordable prices. Our antique mirrors are hand silvered in Gloucestershire.
Large convex (fish eye) mirrors create striking focal points in contemporary and traditional interiors and help create that "wow" factor. Convex mirrors reflect light outwards lightening rooms up. Convex mirrors "Oeil de Sorciere" have been popular since the 15th century and create a luxurious feel.
We work with a number of worldwide interior designers and private clients. We offer a bespoke service whereby we will create the mirror that you design. Maximum convex mirror size is 220 cms with several different colour options. Lead time for bespoke pieces currently stands at six weeks.
If you have any questions please drop us a line.

THE PROCESS
The Convex Mirror Company's fabrication process starts with the manufacturing of the glass lens. The lens is moulded into shape by the use of heat. The silvering process starts with a thorough clean of the glass- removing grease. We then sensitise the glass in order to create a chemical bond between the glass lens and the silver. This enables the silver to adhere to the glass in a uniform manner. The silver layer is then thinned by hand. Backing paint is applied to the reverse of the mirror which creates the unique hand-silvered antique distressed appearance.
