Current lampworking glasses use either a glass lens (such as the ACE 202 lens from Phillips) or a polycarbonate lens. I think that either could receive a mirror coating.
But, I think that these would have to be custom made, and most likely would not be cheap. For example, I sell a lexan faceshield that has a gold (yes, real gold!) coating on it to reflect the heat. You can imagine the cost of this!
Plus, I would be concerned about any optical distortion added to the lenses, especially in a one-of-a-kind application.
