An almost identical Irish mirror, with glass chandelier, now in the Cecil Higgins Museum, Bedford is illustrated in M. Mortimer, 'Irish Mirror Chandeliers', Country Life, 16 December 1971, fig. 4, p. 1741 and M. Mortimer, The English Glass Chandelier, Woodbridge, 2000, p. 164, figs. 101-102. The latter mirror-chandelier bears the inscription of the Grafton Street, Dublin glass-cutter and retailer 'John D. Aykbowm' who, in 1800, advertised his 'New Venice' glass and crystal manufacture on the Blackrock Road, Dublin.
