Popular Contemporary Antique Mirror Finishes


Distressed Antique Glass

One of the most popular antique mirror finishes is distressed antique glass. This type of finish features a worn, weathered look that adds character and charm to any space. Distressed antique glass is achieved through a variety of techniques such as sandblasting, acid etching, or even hand scraping to create imperfections on the surface of the mirror. This gives it an aged appearance, making it perfect for adding a vintage touch to your home.


Smoked Antique Glass

Another popular antique mirror finish is smoked antique glass. This type of glass features a dark, smoky tint that gives it a rich and luxurious look. Smoked antique glass is achieved through a process of applying a thin layer of metallic silver to the back of the mirror, giving it its distinct color. This type of finish is perfect for creating a dramatic statement in any room and can be used in both modern and traditional spaces.


Vintage Antique Glass

Vintage antique glass is a type of mirror that has been aged over time, giving it a unique and beautiful patina. This type of glass is often used in vintage or shabby chic décor, as it adds character and charm to any space. Vintage antique glass can also be used in modern spaces to add a touch of nostalgia and warmth.

Honeycomb Mirrors™


Lightweight. Rigid. Mechanically Secure.


In many architectural installations, mirrors and other opaque glass panels must be fabricated in a way that allows for mechanical attachment, panelization, and improved structural stability. Traditional mirror alone can be heavy, fragile, or difficult to secure safely — especially in large-format applications.


TCG Glass Honeycomb Mirrors™ are engineered to solve that problem.



Engineered Composite Construction


Each panel begins with an aluminum honeycomb core bonded to aluminum facings. To this structural substrate, we laminate mirror or other opaque glass — annealed or tempered — creating a lightweight composite panel with exceptional rigidity.


The honeycomb structure dramatically increases stiffness while reducing overall weight per square foot. Even thinner glass becomes substantially more stable, allowing for larger panel sizes without excessive weight or deflection.


Designed for Mechanical Attachment

Because of the aluminum backing system, Honeycomb Mirrors™ can be fabricated to accept:


• Concealed Z-clips

• Mechanical fasteners

• Framed mounting systems

• Direct adhesive installation


This allows installers to mechanically connect panels to walls or ceilings when required, improving overall safety and performance while maintaining a clean architectural appearance.


Safety & Compliance

Honeycomb Mirrors™ are fabricated as laminated composite panels and are manufactured to comply with applicable safety standards, including:


• ASTM C1172

• CPSC 16 CFR 1201


This makes them suitable for commercial interiors, hospitality spaces, retail environments, and other applications where safety glazing compliance is required.


5 stars

Ordered a decorative glass backsplash for a new construction build wet bar. Working with TCG Glass on the glass sizing, production and shipping to WI was a breeze. We had a tight deadline with the client and they were able to meet our schedule and deliver a quality product. Looking forward to working with TCG again!
