That is good to know.

While savouring a large beer mug full of tea a short while ago, something jogged in my mind that the silvering process for mirrors at one time involved use of a mercury based compound applied to the glass. Unless that process has changed recently, it might be hard to find a place willing to redo an older mirror of any kind. The very thought would likely send the nearest environmentalist running and screaming into the woods!
