Description
The Surcos is a 180x80cm rectangle wall mirror with hand-applied silver leaf detailing that creates an organic branch pattern across the mirror surface. Made by Schuller in Spain, the mirror combines a wide reflective plane with raised silver leaf lines that follow irregular, flowing paths resembling natural veining or tree branches. The mirror itself is clear float glass; the texture comes from the applied metalwork on the surface.
Designed as a full-length mirror for hallways, bedroom walls and living spaces, the Surcos can be hung vertically or horizontally depending on the wall dimensions and room layout. Vertical orientation suits narrow hallway walls and beside-wardrobe positions; horizontal mounting works above sideboards, console tables or in wider wall spaces where the 180cm width becomes a feature. The 4cm depth includes the mounting bracket, so the mirror sits close to the wall without significant projection.
The silver leaf finish provides a warm metallic tone that sits between polished chrome and antique silver, with the hand-applied process giving subtle tonal variation across the branch lines. At 38.6kg the mirror requires secure wall fixings into solid masonry or stud positions with appropriate rated wall plugs and brackets. The weight is distributed across the 180cm height, but the mirror should not be hung on plasterboard alone without adequate backing support.
The reflective surface amplifies natural light in darker hallways and smaller rooms, while the branch pattern adds visual interest without fragmenting the reflection. The mirror suits modern, Scandinavian and contemporary interiors where a balance between clean form and organic detail is needed, and pairs well with neutral palettes, pale wood tones and muted greys.

Frequently Asked
Can the mirror be hung horizontally?
Yes. The Surcos can be mounted vertically or horizontally depending on your wall space and room layout. Vertical orientation suits hallways and beside-wardrobe positions; horizontal mounting works above console tables or in wider wall spaces.
What wall fixings are needed?
At 38.6kg the mirror requires secure fixings into solid masonry or timber studs. Use wall plugs and screws rated for at least 50kg distributed load, or specific mirror hanging brackets designed for heavy mirrors. Do not hang on plasterboard alone without adequate backing support.
How is the silver leaf pattern applied?
The silver leaf detailing is hand-applied by Schuller in Spain, creating organic branch-like lines across the mirror surface. The pattern is applied as raised metalwork on the glass, not printed or etched, so it has slight dimensional depth and tonal variation between pieces.
How is the mirror cleaned?
Clean the mirror glass with standard glass cleaner or a damp microfibre cloth. For the silver leaf sections, use a dry soft cloth only — avoid spraying cleaner directly onto the metalwork as moisture can dull the finish over time.
