This black round framed mirror pairs a generous 90 cm diameter with a slim, understated metal frame — the kind of piece that opens up a room without drawing attention away from the furnishings around it. A steady performer in our Wall Mirrors line-up, chosen repeatedly by customers looking for a clean, modern silhouette.
Design & Materials
The frame is steel with a smooth black finish that sits closer to matte than glossy, giving it a contemporary, low-sheen appearance. At roughly 2.5 cm wide, the frame is deliberately slim — enough to define the mirror’s edge without adding visual bulk. Behind the glass sits a wood-based backing board, keeping the overall weight to a manageable 7 kg. The mirror glass itself is clear and flat (not bevelled), delivering a crisp, undistorted reflection that works well in both natural and artificial light.
In our experience, this style of round black metal framed mirror is one of the most versatile finishes to place in a home. The matte black edge pairs comfortably with industrial shelving and dark metal light fittings, but it sits equally well against softer, neutral-toned schemes — warm plaster walls, rattan furniture, light timber, or linen textures.
Size & Placement
At 90 cm across and just 2 cm deep, this is a genuinely useful size. It is large enough to reflect a real slice of the room — bouncing daylight from a nearby window or visually doubling the depth of a narrow hallway — without overwhelming an average wall. For context, 90 cm sits comfortably above a standard sideboard or console table, leaving clear space above and to each side.
We often suggest this for living rooms as a focal point above a mantelpiece or sofa, and it works beautifully in bedrooms above a chest of drawers. A black round wall mirror of this scale is also a smart choice for dining rooms and entrance halls, where its circular shape softens the straight lines of doorframes and furniture. Because the frame is portrait-hung only and does not have a flat bottom, it is designed purely for wall mounting rather than leaning.
Hanging & Installation
The mirror comes fitted with a single keyhole bracket on the top rail at the back. Simply drive a suitable screw into your wall and hook the mirror over it — no wire, string, or chain should be used. Wall screws and rawl plugs are not included, so choose fixings appropriate to your wall type: standard rawl plugs for masonry, or plasterboard anchors rated for at least 7 kg if you are fixing into a stud wall. At 7 kg the mirror is comfortable for one person to lift, though having a second pair of hands to check alignment before you commit to a screw position is always worthwhile.
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.
