Laelia Silver Mirror

A common design rule of thumb is that a mirror should be approximately two-thirds to three-quarters the width of the furniture below it. Measuring 42 inches wide, this mirror pairs beautifully with consoles or dressers that are between 55 and 65 inches wide. This proportion ensures the mirror feels grounded and intentional rather than overwhelming or undersized for the space.

Yes, this mirror is suitable for bathroom use. The frame is constructed from wood with a protective silver finish, designed to withstand the typical conditions of a home. For residents in coastal or high-humidity climates, we recommend ensuring the bathroom is well-ventilated and wiping any condensation off the frame with a soft, dry cloth after showers to preserve the integrity of the silver finish over time.

This mirror’s transitional arched frame makes it a versatile focal point for several areas. Its 42-inch width is ideally scaled for placement above an entryway console, a bedroom dresser, or even as a stylish vanity mirror in a bathroom. The arched silhouette provides a soft, architectural contrast to the straight lines typically found in furniture and doorways, helping to "open up" a room and create a more inviting atmosphere.

Based on our furniture care expertise, we recommend dusting the silver frame regularly with a soft, lint-free cloth to maintain its luster. For the glass, use a standard glass cleaner applied to a cloth first rather than sprayed directly onto the mirror. To protect the grooved details and silver finish of the frame, avoid using harsh chemical cleaners or abrasive sponges, which can dull or scratch the surface over time.

To make installation as seamless as possible, this mirror comes with D-rings already affixed to the back. Because this is a substantial piece measuring 42" x 30", we strongly recommend using heavy-duty wall anchors or hanging the mirror directly into wall studs. Always ensure your hardware is rated for the weight of the mirror to provide a secure and level mount, especially in high-traffic areas like entryways.

This mirror features a one-inch bevel, a hallmark of high-quality craftsmanship. Beyond adding a sophisticated, finished look, the angled edges of a beveled mirror help refract light more effectively than flat glass. This increases the mirror’s ability to brighten a room and adds a subtle sense of depth and dimension to the reflection.
