Wall Mirrors
A wall mirror brightens a room and makes it feel bigger. Our range includes large living room mirrors, overmantel styles and decorative designs. Frames come in oak, painted and reclaimed wood finishes, matching our furniture ranges. Hang one above a fireplace, sideboard or console table.
Wall Mirrors That Brighten Every Room
Mirrors are one of the easiest ways to transform a room. They bounce light around, open up small spaces and add a decorative focal point. The right mirror can work like a window.
Where to Hang a Wall Mirror
- Above a fireplace – a classic overmantel look.
- Above a sideboard or console – centred for balance.
- In a hallway – for a last check before you leave.
- Opposite a window – to reflect daylight deeper into the room.
Getting the Size Right
Above furniture, choose a mirror about two thirds the width of the piece below. Leave 15 to 25cm between the furniture top and the mirror. On a bare wall, the centre of the mirror should sit around eye level, about 150 to 160cm from the floor.
Frame Styles
Oak frames match our oak furniture ranges, like Arnewood and Newton. Painted frames feel fresh and light. Reclaimed wood frames add rustic texture. Choose a frame that echoes other finishes in the room.
Hanging Safely
Mirrors are heavy. Use fixings rated for the weight and your wall type. Plasterboard walls need special cavity fixings. If in doubt, ask a professional. Always use two fixing points for large mirrors.
Styling Ideas
Lean a large mirror on a sideboard for a relaxed look. Flank a mirror with a pair of wall lights. In a dark hall, a tall mirror makes the space feel twice as wide.
Looking for a smaller mirror? Try a trinket mirror. Pair your mirror with a console table or sideboard. See all home accessories.
