This mirror is one of my favorites and works well in a variety of styles. Albert Hadley put it over a console in a dining room. Don’t you love the blue leather on the chairs? Turquoise is a big color to watch for this year.
Charlotte Moss features it over a fireplace with traditional sconces flanking it.
Eric Cohler combines a more transitional and different look with the mirror and a photograph.
updated: Thanks to Style Court for bringing this Miles Redd one against lacquered walls to my attention.
Which one is your favorite?

top one is my fave…. but I would move the lamp to the left.
And I thought you were going to show honeycomb cereal or tile….

The first photo….the mirror, the lamp, that chair!!! Wiping the drool off my keyboard! But, I do agree with PVE, wish the lamp was to one side or the other not obstructing the view of the mirror. And most definately not lined up with urn below.
I like it over the fireplace on the scenic wallpaper the best!- cool to see it in different settings though!
I love the one with the wallpaper! Just beautiful!
My favorite is definitely the one of Albert Hadley! I love this picture with the turquoiqe chair!!!
And the mirror is gorgeous!!!

The top photo shows off the mirror more and sets a tone, the second image I love how it blends in nicely against the wall. Hmm, at first I was drawn to the second, but as a minimalist I am I am going for the first. As pve wrote, my inclination is also to move thet lamp to the left.
Top one is my favorite as well! Anything Albert Hadley puts his hands to is tops in my book!!
Charlotte Moss.
I say the first, but dump the lamp. No, I’ve looked again, and I don’t care for the rival mirror under the console table. So, I’m with the second, where nothing detracts from the beauty of the mirror and where every element is complementary.
The first image is still my favorite. I see the idea of the symmetry, I too think the lamp should move to the left.

The second is my fave, but I do love the blue chair in the first one!
Ha! I like the bright orange flowers best!!
They almost blend in with everything.

Great post Laura. I loved that Charlotte Moss dining room when it was on the cover of SA and I think Miles Redd used one in a deep green room, if my memory isn’t failing
I found a mirror like this at Tuesday Morning and didn’t jump on it. Man was I depressed when I went back for it and it wasn’t there. Love this!
i like the top one!
I love this mirror, ever since I saw the Charlotte Moss room. Dessin Fournir makes a version called the Graham mirror – you can see it on their website even if you don’t have a login (it is in one of their scene pictures).
Great post!
