“Green is the prime color of the world, and that from which its loveliness arises.”
– Pedro Calderon de la Barca, Spanish poet
The summer season is synonymous with color and vibrancy. Warmth and enjoyment are always top of mind! For our second featured item we wanted to draw attention to this striking Murano glass Verbena green mirror. The delicate detail of the hand-crafted glass leaves and the array of green tones makes this the perfect center of attention in any room. We hope you appreciate learning a little more about this mirror and getting a few tricks for how best to style a statement mirror such as this!
The colors of green laced throughout the frame of the mirror are intriguing and lovely. The varied tones give added depth to the layered appearance of the glass leaves. One of the most attractive things about the mirror is the juxtaposition of the bold appearance with the delicate detail of the small hand-blown glass elements. The leaves culminate on the top and bottom in a beautiful flower moment with glass petals. Additionally, the scale of the piece draws the eye as it is perfect for above a mantel, a buffet, or in an entry. This excellent mirror has the freshness of color with traditional glass blowing techniques.
HOW TO STYLE THE Mirror
There are many ways to incorporate a statement piece like this mirror into your home. Here are a few of our favorite options! As with all of our items, we recommend mixing styles and periods to showcase the best aspects of each. When placing the mirror above a buffet, it is best to find a credenza with enough weight to balance the large mirror. This ebonized Art Deco buffet mimics some of the lovey leaf details in the curves of the hardware as well. For the lighting, we love using glass that plays off the green tones. These Murano glass lamps have an iridescent finish which works perfectly with the green of the mirror while introducing modern style. Similarly, this unique vase adds green and modernity to the space. Finally, many of our beautiful Murano glass chandeliers would pair perfectly with this mirror. Please feel free to contact us if looking for additional assistance in placing this mirror in your home.
