Questions About Antique Japanese Mirrors
  • 1stDibs ExpertAugust 8, 2024
    To tell if your Japanese pottery is antique, look for markings, which usually appear on the bottoms of pieces. If you see the word "Nippon," your piece was likely produced between 1891 and 1921, making it an antique. Pieces marked with the words "made in occupied Japan" originated between 1945 and 1952 and are vintage, based on their age. A "made in Japan" marking may indicate a vintage or contemporary piece. If you don't see any of these markings, consult trusted online resources to get a rough idea of when your pottery was produced. Any piece that dates back 100 years or more is antique. Should you encounter difficulty with the dating process, a certified appraiser or knowledgeable antique dealer can assist you. On 1stDibs, shop a variety of Japanese pottery.
  • 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022
    To tell if a mirror is antique, check the glass to see if it's wavy or has any imperfections. Modern glass tends to be perfect. While this can be a clue, it might just signify that the mirror is old, not antique. Another thing to check for is the reflective coating on the back of the glass to see if it has begun oxidizing and has any age scratches. Finally, check out the frame to see if it has the appearance of age. Shop a large collection of antique mirrors from some of the world’s top sellers on 1stDibs.
  • 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022
    An antique mirror is a mirror of considerable age that has historical significance or is in great demand due to its beauty or rarity. Oftentimes, you’ll hear an antique be defined as any item that is more than 100 years old, but this is not a specific measurement of an antique nor is it a requirement. Shop a collection of antique mirrors from some of the world’s top sellers on 1stDibs.
  • 1stDibs ExpertFebruary 22, 2021
    You can tell if a mirror is antique through a number of indicators. For example, most antique mirrors are quite small in size, measuring no more than 2 feet. Additionally, antique mirrors will show signs of sports or discoloration. Many antique mirrors will have bubbling or waves in the glass.
  • 1stDibs ExpertOctober 21, 2020

    Repairs and replacements can go toward devaluing any piece of antique or vintage furniture, and any modifications or repairs done to a centuries-old mirror should be handled by experts and executed with care. Because antique Venetian mirrors were handcrafted by Italian artisans and can in some cases be hundreds of years old, it is strongly recommended that you consult with experts in the field of restoring antique or decorative mirrors in the event that your piece should require restorative work.
