Mirror Made From Old Japanese Ceramic Tiles

These colourful mirrors are crafted from original Peranakan ceramic tiles dating from the 1920s, set into a bold, art deco-inspired frame. The tiles themselves were made in Japan, influenced by European majolica designs, and shipped to Singapore where they became hugely popular in Peranakan homes. Their vibrant oceanic motifs, sailing boats, and glazed surfaces capture the eclectic blend of East and West that defined Peranakan decorative style.

The tiles used here were sourced in India and have been carefully re-purposed into unique mirrors, each with its own lively combination of colours and patterns. Sold individually, they bring both history and artistry to modern interiors, perfect as a feature wall piece or as a distinctive gift.
