Vintage Bar Mirror

Vintage Bar Mirror | Online8 New Zealand

The proportions are the giveaway: 510mm wide by 1410mm high is a bar mirror shape, borrowed from the tall narrow glass that used to sit behind a pub's back bar between the shelves. That makes it useful in a very particular way — it fits the slot beside a drinks cabinet or between two runs of shelving where nothing else will, and it throws light back across bottles and glassware rather than across a room.

Why It Stands Apart

• Built for a narrow slot. At just 510mm wide it fits the gaps that standard mirror proportions leave stranded — beside a bar cabinet, between shelving runs, or in an alcove.
• Height that works behind a counter. 1410mm carries the reflection well above bench or bar height, so it stays visible over bottles, glassware and anything else on the surface below.
• Vintage styling. The aged character suits an entertaining space, where a plain contemporary mirror tends to read as clinical rather than convivial.
• Part of a matched trio. It shares its styling with our Vintage Square Mirror and Vintage Extra Large Wall Mirror, so the three can be combined across a connected living and dining space.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is the glass antiqued?
Our supplier data does not specify it for this piece. The related Vintage Square Mirror in the same range uses a heavily foxed antiqued glass and this may share it, but rather than guess, call the showroom and we will confirm — it makes a real difference to how the piece reads behind a bar.

How should it be fixed to the wall?
Into a stud rather than plasterboard alone. A tall narrow mirror concentrates its load on a small number of fixings, and at 1410mm a failure would bring a large glass panel down onto whatever sits below it — which in a bar setting is usually bottles and glassware. Check for wiring before you drill and have someone hold it plumb while you mark out.

Can it go behind a wet bar?
Splashes are fine if wiped up. Sustained moisture is not — water sitting against the bottom edge will eventually work in behind the silvering and cause dark spotting that cannot be reversed. Leave a gap above the splashback rather than mounting it hard down onto the bench.

What does it weigh?
The weight recorded against this product is a placeholder from a bulk supplier import and is well below the real figure, so we have not published it. Call the showroom and we will confirm.
