Colour & Finish
The frame has a smooth black painted outer shell which has been subtly brush-distressed in places to reveal the frame’s golden coloured base paint.
This effect creates a slightly aged appearance to authentically suit the natural ruggedness of the outdoors, complementing the organic and evolving nature of your sanctuary. While in some, evoking a sense of history and character, as if it has been a part of your garden for a long time.
Materials
The frame is made of steel for a hardy structure that won’t bend or bow when exposed to moisture or sunlight.
The reflective glass is frost protected so you can feel confident in leaving this mirror outdoors all year round without it cracking.
A plastic sheet board sits behind the mirror panel to keep it in place within the frame while helping to further protect it from both accidents and the elements.

Coming in at 112 x 61 x 4 cm, this outdoor gothic mirror can work well as a feature piece on a wall near your outdoor seating area.
You can also add a touch of glamour to your garden by placing it on your fence or shed.

If there’s one thing this piece can do well, it’s moving natural light into spaces that were previously without. So, we invite you to have fun and experiment with ways you could beam light into those shadier spots within your garden.
Installation & Hanging Guidelines
This mirror will come with one, two, or three keyholes on the reverse of the metal frame, which can be used to hang it onto either screws or hooks.
To hang this mirror, attach it directly to wall screws (not supplied) that are equally spaced from the centre of the keyholes. DO NOT STRING.
Please note that screws and Rawl plugs are not included with this item.
We recommend using a competent trades person to install this mirror in a secure and safe manner. As when hung outside, strong winds can cause weak fastenings to come loose.
Similarly for the same reason, we do not recommend leaning this mirror against walls or trees outside without the frame being securely fastened in some way.
This mirror is not only confined to use within the outdoor realm, as it can also work well indoors hung on walls throughout your home.
Cleaning & Maintenance
Should the glass require cleaning, utilize a standard glass cleaning spray or a water/white-vinegar mixture spray, then wipe the glass using a lint-free, scratch-free cloth for a flawless, streak-free result.
When cleaning the frame, refrain from using bleach or harsh chemicals. Opt to wipe it with a slightly damp with water lint-free cloth.

A Poem For You
In the garden where secrets dwell,
An outdoor gothic mirror casts a spell,
Reflecting tales of ancient times,
A portal to a world, so sublime.
Engraved with columns, the frame stands tall,
A haloed arch, like a cathedral’s call,
Whispers of history echo through the glass,
Connecting our present to a storied past.
The roses dance, their shadows sway,
As moonlight graces the mirror’s display,
The ghostly figures of knights and kings,
Emerge from the depths, their presence brings.
A tribute to a time when darkness thrived,
The outdoor gothic mirror, it survives,
In its reflection, the beauty of the night,
A testament to a world, both fierce and bright.
Through the looking glass, where secrets hide,
A timeless journey, our hearts collide,
With stories of love, of loss, and fear,
Preserved within the outdoor gothic mirror.
In this enchanted space, where spirits roam,
The outdoor gothic mirror finds its home,
A guardian of memories, a keeper of lore,
A window to a realm, forevermore.
