This black metal framed mirror pairs a slim brushed-aluminium profile with clear, undistorted glass to create a clean, contemporary focal point for any room. Part of our Arlington Collection range, a collection that sells consistently well with our living-room and hallway customers.
Design & Materials
The frame is constructed from aluminium with a brushed black finish that reveals subtle grain-like striations when the light catches it — a tactile quality you rarely get from a painted or powder-coated frame. At roughly 1.5 cm wide, the profile is intentionally understated: enough to define the mirror’s edges without competing with surrounding artwork or furniture. The glass is flat and unbevelled, giving a full-width reflection that maximises the sense of space. We recommend this style when you want a rectangular black framed mirror that blends quietly into a modern or minimalist scheme rather than commanding attention on its own.
Size & Placement
At 90 cm tall and 60 cm wide, this black framed wall mirror sits comfortably above a standard console table, sideboard, or bathroom vanity without dominating the wall. Hung in portrait, it works well in a hallway or narrow landing where a last-glance check is useful. Flip it to landscape and it makes an effective overmantle or bathroom mirror — particularly in smaller cloakrooms where a wider aspect opens up the room. The 2 cm depth keeps it close to the wall for a neat, almost flush appearance. Its modern black framed mirror aesthetic pairs naturally with light-toned walls, Scandi-style furniture, or industrial accents such as matte-black hardware and exposed shelving.
Hanging & Installation
The mirror arrives fitted with four D-loops on the back — two positioned for portrait hanging and two for landscape — so you can choose your preferred orientation without additional hardware. Simply position your wall screws to align with the corresponding D-loops and hang the mirror directly; do not use string, wire, or chain. At 7 kg, it is manageable for one person, but a second pair of hands makes levelling easier. Wall screws and rawl plugs are not included — choose fixings rated for your wall type (solid masonry, plasterboard with appropriate anchors, or timber stud).
For a clean, flush-wall finish, we recommend pairing this mirror with our heavy-duty mirror fittings kit — a hook-and-loop back-plate system designed to sit flat against solid frames.
