No idea where to go for this, so hopefully someone can suggest a few places...

I'm after a free standing black wrought iron mirror. Where on earth can I start looking for one???

Try one of the many reclamation yards around Wiltshire. Devizes Reclamation and Frome Reclamation (yes I know Frome is Somerset). I would have said Walcot's in Bath, but I believe they have gone under.

Thanks Catherine. I will give them both a try! The room now only needs this to finish it off!

Keep looking at ebay - seriously. I have bought 5 antique morrors from there over the past six months.

Walcots have gone bust, basta8ds.

Why not find a local blacksmith ( look, you will find one, honest ) and have one made how you want it.
