The Mirror and Lighting Museum (Ghasr-e Ayineh)
The Mirror and Lighting Museum is located in Yazd, housed in a historical building originally constructed in 1941 CE (1320 AH Solar) as a private guesthouse. It was later converted into a museum in 1998 CE (1377 AH Solar).
The museum building, known as Ghasr-e Ayineh, stands within a spacious garden featuring a large central pool. Architecturally, it showcases a harmonious blend of traditional Persian and European styles. The structure includes several beautifully designed spaces, such as a Shahneshin (main reception hall) and a Howzkhaneh (pool room) with a stone basin at its center.
Every room in the mansion is richly decorated with stucco reliefs, wall and ceiling paintings, and in some areas, exquisite mirror work. The lattice windows with colored glass and wooden doors further enhance the building’s grace and refinement.
The museum’s collection includes ancient manuscripts, books, coins, stamps, weapons, and several bronze artifacts from Lorestan. Other exhibits consist of various types of mirrors, as well as oil lamps (floor-standing, hanging, mounted, and handheld), candle holders, oil burners, gas lamps, electric lamps, and matchboxes. Among the oldest items on display are oil lamps dating back to the Sassanian period, offering visitors a glimpse into Iran’s long history of craftsmanship and illumination.
