History of mirrors dates back to ancient times when mankind first noticed reflections in still water. Long before man was able to make glass mirrors, polished metal was used to observe images. Greco-Romans used convex disks of metals like bronze, tin silver etc for various applications. The earliest mirrors were hand mirrors. Mirrors large enough to reflect the image of whole body did not appear until 1st century AD.The chemical process of coating a glass surface with metallic silver was invented by Justice von Liebig in 1835 which resulted in modern techniques of mirror making.
