These sun-inspired mirrors are bold and bound to make a statement.
Splurge
Vastu’s Fiona Mirror could double as modern wall art. The pin-straight spires radiate from a simple round face, which is available in a 13- or 23.5-inch diameter. This solid-brass mirror costs $1,450 for a medium and $2,950 for a large.
Vastu,1829 14th St. NW; 202-234-8344.
Steal
Crate & Barrel’s Starburst Mirror has a similar whimsical design for $199. With three layers of wire and a brass frame encircling a four-inch mirror, this piece would add life to any space, and could be displayed indoors or out.
Crate & Barrel has locations in Virginia, DC and Maryland.
