Below is a collection of mirrors that are often referred to as smoked.

This is our classic smoked antiqued mirror finish. It has dark and light low and highlights. A very versatile look that can work in many environments because it is both bold and subtle at the same time. The link is to order a swatch of this mirror.

Gray mirror is another type of mirror often referred to as tinted mirror. Much more widely available than
antiqued mirror, gray mirror typically comes in a “light” and “dark” version. For custom
projects that will be installed in your home (like backsplashes, vanity mirrors), gray mirror is often
available and less expensive locally. If you are looking for a custom wall mirror, then please reach out
as this is a better fit for us.

Bronze mirror is another tinted mirror often used in smoked mirror projects. Unlike antiqued mirror, this has a clear, modern reflection. The photo above shows a classic bronze mirror alongside our rose gold mirror as a comparison.

Recommendation: Like gray mirror, for installations in your home, I strongly recommend talking to a local professional first, as most glass shops carry bronze mirror.

Unlike the other antiqued mirror I mentioned, “regular” antiqued mirror is more aged looking than smokey. Often antiqued mirror is called smokey mirror and this finish is very popular, so I thought I would include it. The “shop” link will let you buy a swatch of this material.

As I mentioned above, smoked mirror often refers to many different types of mirror.

I’m going to go through some of the questions that come up frequently below.

If you have a question about smoked mirror that isn’t answered below, please send me an email at
design@mirrorcoop.com and I’ll try to answer.

Question: What is Smoked Mirror?

“Smoked mirror” is actually kind of a broad term. Depending on who you ask, it can mean a few different things.

Some mirrors are literally smoked. They’re held up to a flame that melts the surface and creates a smokey effect on the reflective surface.
While a mirror might not have been through the smoking process, it could have a distorted reflection due to aging.

Question: What Does Smoking Glass Mean?

I believe that when a glassmaker smokes glass, they literally hold it up to a flame. The heat leaves a smokey residue on the surface of the glass.

This is an antiquated process. Now, the “smoke” look in glass comes from various tinting techniques, not from exposing glass to fire.

Obviously, this process can be very toxic and dangerous. Please DO NOT try to do this without professional help.
