Tailored to your Project: Hospitality | Commercial | Residential

At Rough Old Glass, we believe that every space, whether it’s a welcoming hotel lobby, a lively restaurant, a thoughtfully designed office, or a cherished family home, deserves something truly individual. That’s why we specialise in creating bespoke antique mirror glass, hand‑silvered finishes, and verre églomisé panels, each piece tailored to fit its setting and purpose.

No two projects are ever quite the same. Hospitality spaces, like hotels, bars, and restaurants, often call for mirrors and glasswork that set the tone and stand up to daily use. Commercial projects might need a statement feature wall, a run of framed mirrors, or a practical splashback that also says something about your brand. In private homes, it’s about reflecting your own style, whether that’s a subtle foxed finish in a dressing room, a full wall panel in a kitchen, or a one‑of‑a‑kind framed mirror in the hallway.

For us, it’s never just about the look. The right antique mirror glass or verre églomisé panel can completely change the feel of a room, adding depth, warmth, and a sense of history. Our hand‑silvered finishes bring character and a gentle glow, whether you’re after understated elegance or a real talking point. We love working with clients to find the finish and level of distressing that’s just right for their space.

We’re hands‑on from the start, working with designers, architects, and homeowners alike. Everything is made here in our North Devon workshop, from single framed mirrors to large‑scale wall panels and toughened splashbacks. You can choose from over 50 finishes, foxed, vintage, reverse gilded verre églomisé, and more. Each piece is unique, finished to your requirements, and carefully checked before it leaves us.

Our methods are rooted in traditional hand silvering, but we’re equally at home with modern requirements, precise measurements, toughened glass for kitchens, and smooth installation. We use sustainable materials wherever possible, and our team takes real pride in every job, big or small.

We know that the best results come from collaboration. Whether you’re a designer, a hotelier, or a homeowner, we’ll listen carefully to your ideas, talk through finishes, and offer honest advice on everything from socket cut‑outs to installation. From the first conversation to the final fitting, we’re here to make sure your project is exactly as you imagined.
