The Nuvola Antique Mirror Splashback range from DIY Splashbacks is made in UK from Pilikngton toughened glass, so they can be safely used behind all kitchen hobs without risk of breaking. Distressed Mirror splashbacks compliment many kitchen styles including classic and contemporary. The distressed mottled effect leaves the mirror looking very much like a silver mirror from further back creating the illusion of space. The reflection is subtly broken up when closer to it making it a stunning feature kitchen wall covering.
A lovely feature of this product is that the colour of the antique effect will change during different times of the day as different light sources and colours are reflected off it.

Antique Mirror Splashbacks
The most in demand splashback design at present are antique mirror splashbacks but up until now is has not been possible to toughen/temper antique mirror. By using pioneering techniques we are now able to offer antique mirror splashbacks, made from toughened glass, made to any size or shape.
Authentic Antique Mirror is caused over time by oxidation of the mercury backing used to make a mirror reflective. Modern antique mirrors though are reproductions, the aging process has been sped up using chemicals to replicate the oxidation cause to a mirror over time. Tempered Antique Mirrors are also reproductions where we have used techinques to replicate the oxidation on a mirror splashback. Unlike authentic antique mirrors though, which will of course have gathered surface damage over time, our antique mirror splashbacks for kitchens and bathrooms will have defect free surfaces and modern beveled edges.
