Representing the sacred and the profane, beauty and vanity,
the mirror has possessed an aura of mystical power since
ancient times. Associated with myths and iconic historical
figures, from Helen of Troy and Cleopatra, to the fairy tales of
Snow White and the mermaids, mirrors play an intrinsic part in
history and legend.
The Christopher Guy mirror frame repertoire has reached
legendary status and is considered to be the finest collection
of mirror frames in the world. A myriad of styles pay tribute
to a diverse range of art movements and periods with finesse
and imagination. Whether expertly hand carved in wood or
crafted in fine metals, CG mirrors are breathtaking statements
of craftsmanship and exquisite design.
