I'm also curious if anyone knows anything about this mirror? I was intrigued by the detail on the top panel. As mentioned, I'm not a designer, so I don't know a lot about furniture. Perhaps knowing more about them will help me to place them...

Flea market find
One of the things I love about the blog Teal Chic is that she is always asking her readers for opinions on her great finds. Over the Memorial Day weekend, I found these mirrors at a flea market in Pennsylvania. I want to touch them up a bit and paint. I thought about painting one turquoise to match the other turquoise accents in the lair. But I also like the idea of painting it the same creamy white as the other furniture and fabric in the room, so that the other turquoise elements really pop. I bought two and was thinking they might look nice next to one another somewhere else in the house. SO--you've seen the house, what do you think?

would that detail be considered swag? nice mirrors!
i once posted pictures of our ceiling medallions on dwell magazine's forum to see if anyone could answer questions about them and some dude who worked in the industry gave me a whole history of the meaning behind it. so you can post something on some design site if you wanted. i think id paint them white and have the other items pop! how fun! i'll forward to the wood mechanic's blog. he may know.
good call. wood mechanic is way talented. i recently linked to his blog off of yours and i was blown away.
he is way talented. he's building us a mantel for our dinning room. will post as soon as he's finished. should be another week or so!

I really love it the way it is. I'm sure it would look fantastic in any color you choose, as it is absolutely gorgeous! Love the detail!!!
