Robust Framed Architectural Salvage Teak Mirror

$995.00
| /

This antique mirror carries the memory of the sun. Sourced from the architectural framework of historic buildings, this heavy antique window mirror features a rare "sun-bleached" finish. Over decades of exposure to the elements, the wood has been naturally stripped of its dark tannins, revealing a soft, sandy driftwood tone that feels effortlessly organic. Measuring 42.5" x 27.5", this frame is defined by its substantial depth and weight. Unlike thin, modern reproductions, this is a heavy slab of history. The thick profile creates a natural ledge, casting subtle shadows that highlight the wood's raw grain and historic joinery. The pale, neutral palette makes it a versatile chameleon—at home in a breezy Malibu beach house, a minimalist Wabi-Sabi loft, or a warm farmhouse entry.

The driftwood tone on this mirror pairs beautifully with white linen walls and woven jute rugs, bringing a touch of the beach indoors without being kitschy. Its size (42.5" wide) is perfect for leaning atop a low dresser or credenza to create a relaxed, collected vignette.
