Crystalix Leaner Mirror Black - 201x100cm

The Crystalix is a 201x100cm leaner mirror with a heavily detailed baroque-style frame moulded from polyurethane and finished in deep black. The frame features scrollwork, shell motifs and layered architectural detailing across an 11cm depth, creating multiple planes of relief that catch light and shadow. The mirror glass sits within the frame opening measuring approximately 157x56cm, providing a full-length reflection suitable for outfit checking and room expansion.

Designed to lean against a wall rather than hang, the Crystalix suits bedrooms, dressing rooms, hallways and living spaces where a vertical accent is needed. The 26kg weight gives the mirror stability when positioned at a slight backward angle against a wall, though securing the top edge with a wall bracket is recommended in high-traffic areas or homes with children. The black finish works as a strong contrast element in light-toned interiors and as a tonal anchor in darker, moody schemes.

The polyurethane frame replicates the visual density of carved wood without the weight or cost, making a 2m baroque mirror achievable where a solid timber equivalent would be prohibitively heavy and expensive. The moulded details include corner cartouches, acanthus leaf scrolls and beaded inner and outer edges, all unified under a consistent matt black coating. The frame width varies between 10-15cm depending on where the measurement is taken across the ornamental projection.

Positioning a mirror of this scale requires floor space of at least 110cm width to accommodate the frame projection when leaned, and clearance behind of 15-20cm depending on the lean angle. The mirror reflects both natural and artificial light, making smaller rooms feel larger and darker corners brighter, while the black frame prevents the piece from feeling too decorative or lightweight.

Does the mirror need to be fixed to the wall?

The 26kg weight provides stability when leaned at a backward angle, but securing the top edge with a wall bracket or strap is recommended in households with children, pets, or high foot traffic. The mirror can stand freely but fixing reduces tipping risk.

What size is the actual mirror glass?

The visible mirror glass measures approximately 157x56cm within the frame opening. The remaining dimensions are occupied by the ornate polyurethane frame surround.

How is polyurethane different from wood?

Polyurethane is a moulded resin that replicates carved wood detailing at a fraction of the weight and cost. A solid timber frame at this scale and detail level would weigh significantly more than 26kg and cost considerably more. The visual effect is similar once finished.

Can it be hung on the wall instead of leaned?

The Crystalix is designed as a leaner mirror and does not include hanging brackets or D-rings on the reverse. Adding brackets would require drilling into the polyurethane frame and ensuring wall fixings can support the 26kg load plus a safety margin.
