This round black mirror pairs a generous 100cm diameter with a pared-back, slim-profile frame, creating a piece that feels both substantial and effortlessly modern. A steady performer in our Wall Mirrors line-up — chosen repeatedly by customers looking for understated contemporary style.
Design & Materials
The frame is a narrow band of steel finished in a smooth, matte black coating — approximately 2.5cm wide — that wraps cleanly around the full circumference of the glass. Up close, the finish reads as a deep, even black with a subtle satin quality rather than a high-gloss sheen, giving it a refined industrial character. The mirror glass itself is flat and clear, without bevelling or tinting, so reflections stay true and bright. Behind the glass sits a sturdy wood-based backing board, keeping the overall depth to just 2cm and the weight manageable at 8kg. It is a design we often suggest for rooms that already have plenty of texture — the simplicity of a black round framed mirror like this lets surrounding materials do the talking.
Size & Placement
At 100cm across, this is a 100cm round black mirror that commands attention without overwhelming a space. Hung above a sideboard or console table in a hallway, it will fill the wall confidently and bounce light back along the corridor. In a living room, it sits beautifully above a mantelpiece or sofa — at this diameter, it works best on walls at least 120cm wide so the frame has breathing room on each side. It also makes a strong focal point in a dining room, reflecting candlelight or pendant lamps to lift the atmosphere in the evening. If you are furnishing a bedroom, position it opposite or adjacent to a window to draw in as much natural light as possible. The modern, round black framed wall mirror aesthetic pairs naturally with industrial shelving, Scandinavian-inspired furniture, and darker accent walls in charcoal or navy.
Hanging & Installation
The mirror comes with a single keyhole fixing on the top rail at the back, designed for portrait hanging — simply hook it over a screw driven into your wall. At 8kg it is comfortable for one person to lift, though having a second pair of hands to hold the mirror in position while you mark the wall is always helpful. On solid masonry, a standard screw and rawl plug will do the job; for plasterboard or stud walls, we recommend using a heavy-duty plasterboard fixing rated for at least 15kg to allow a comfortable safety margin. Wall screws and rawl plugs are not included, so choose fixings appropriate for your wall type. Do not use string, wire, or chain to hang this mirror.
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.
