Description
A round wall mirror, 80cm by 80cm, in graphite. An angled profile narrows the visible frame when seen straight on, which is how a substantial mirror can still read as slim. At 80cm it is about as wide as a standard interior door. A mirror is the one piece of decoration that gives something back: it doubles whatever light the room already has, and on the wall opposite a window it does more for a dark room than repainting it would.
A cool metal finish reflects white rather than yellow, which sharpens a room instead of warming it. Beside a window it disappears; against a dark wall it draws a bright outline. The strength is in the section, not the bulk: steel holds its shape at a thickness that would flex in almost anything else. It is heavier than aluminium, which is a virtue indoors and a consideration if the piece has to be moved often. It hangs horizontally as well as vertically, so it suits either wall.
At 7kg it wants a proper fixing rather than a nail: a plasterboard anchor rated for the weight, or better, a screw into a stud.
A round form has no corners, so it reads as softer than a square of the same width and settles more easily into a space where straight lines already dominate. Hang the centre at eye level rather than centring it on the wall. On most walls that is lower than instinct suggests, and it is the difference between a mirror you use and one you only look at.

Frequently Asked
Can it hang horizontally?
Yes. It is made to hang either way, so it can go landscape over a console or portrait in a narrower space.
How heavy is it?
7kg. Worth knowing before choosing a wall fixing.
What size is it?
80cm wide by 80cm high and 8cm deep. The full dimensions are in the specification table.
What is it made of?
Aluminium, mirror glass and steel. The full composition is in the specification table.
Is it suitable for a bathroom?
No. It is not specified for a humid room, and a damp environment will show at the edges of the finish in time.
How do I clean it?
Dust it, and use a damp cloth on the finish rather than a solvent or an abrasive.
