Cheval Mirrors: Timeless Bedroom Elegance

The cheval mirror dates back to the 18th century. Its name comes from the French word for horse, after the frame's legs. It's still one of the most elegant mirrors you can own.

Why Choose a Cheval Mirror?

• Tilts to the angle you need, no matter your height.
• Stands on its own, so no wall fixing is needed.
• Shows your full outfit from head to toe.
• Adds a classic furniture piece to the bedroom.

Where to Place It

Position your cheval mirror near the wardrobe for easy outfit checks. Placing it near a window gives you natural light. Avoid putting it directly opposite the bed if you prefer a calmer room.

The Shaftsbury Cheval Mirror

The Shaftsbury cheval mirror features a tilting full length glass in a sturdy frame. It complements traditional and painted bedroom furniture. It's a lovely finishing touch for a dressing area.

Space Needed

Cheval mirrors need floor space for their legs. Allow a little room behind for the mirror to tilt. Check the footprint before ordering, especially in smaller bedrooms.

Care

Clean the glass with a soft cloth and glass cleaner, sprayed onto the cloth. Dust the frame regularly. Check the tilt fixings now and then and tighten if needed.
