REFLECT YOUR STYLE

The natural, reflective qualities of glass means that a well placed wall mirror will magic more light into a room making it appear brighter and larger as it bounces light around.

Mirrors are an essential bathroom fitting for a basin or vanity unit, or for a dressing table. Place a mirror above a dressing able or chest of drawers in a bedroom; above a mentelpiece in a living room and at the end of a narrow landing or hallway for added light and the appearance of space.
