G-M009 Wall Mirror: gold or silver, and the 78 x 115cm fit
This guide is about
G-M009 Wall Mirror
Two decisions come with the G-M009 Wall Mirror, and only one of them is about the mirror. The size is fixed at 78 x 115cm. The finish is yours to pick, gold or silver, and the listing offers both as equals rather than as a standard and an upgrade.
Choosing between the gold and the silver
Neither is safer than the other. What settles it is the metal already in the room, because a mirror this size will be the brightest piece of metalwork on the wall.
- Gold sits with brass or antique brass door furniture, warm bulbs, wood and cream or deep colours. It reads warmer and heavier.
- Silver sits with chrome and brushed steel, cooler greys and white, and it is the easier choice in a bathroom where the taps and towel rail are already chrome.
- If the room has both metals in it, follow whichever is nearest the mirror wall rather than whichever there is more of.
The listing calls them lustrous gold and polished silver and goes no further, so it does not say what the finish is applied to or how it is applied. The photographs on the product page are the only other guide, and we can describe what we have if you need more than that.
A frame that sits over the glass
This is described as a frame-over-mirror design: the frame lies across the mirrored surface rather than stopping at its edge, which is what gives the piece its depth and its Art Deco look. Two practical consequences follow. The listing does not say whether 78 x 115cm is the glass or the outside of the frame, and it does not give the width of the frame itself, so the clear reflection is smaller than the figure either way. And the usable reflection is interrupted by whatever the frame crosses, which is fine for a hall or a feature wall and worth thinking about if you want one clean sheet of mirror to dress in front of.
78 x 115cm on a real wall
At 78cm across this is a substantial mirror, near enough the width of an internal door. Measured out of the box it wants:
| Check | Why |
|---|---|
| Clear wall width | Leave plain wall each side of 78cm; measure to the nearest switch, architrave or corner. |
| Furniture width below | Over a console or chest, keep the mirror the narrower of the two. |
| The route in | 115cm on the diagonal through a turn in a hall or a stairwell. |
As with most of this range the listing gives the two figures without saying which is the width, so check the orientation with us if your gap is tight.
What is not recorded
No weight, no frame depth, no glass thickness, no fixings, and no note of whether it is suitable for a bathroom. A piece of this size on a stud wall needs a sensible fixing, so ask us what is on the back before you buy the plugs.
