Frequently asked questions

Where are these wall mirrors made?

Every mirror in this collection is handmade in South Africa. The beaded designs are worked in glass beads by expert beadsmiths, and the woven designs are made with natural wood frames wrapped by hand in colored wax cord. Each product page names the materials and craft behind the piece.

How do I hang a heavy wall mirror?

Each mirror comes with an insert point or hanging hardware guidance on its product page. Use a wall anchor or hook rated above the mirror's listed weight, and for larger pieces, anchor into a stud where possible. Hang so the center sits at eye level, roughly 57 to 60 inches from the floor.

Where does a decorative mirror work best?

Above a bathroom vanity, in an entryway, or on a hallway wall where it can bounce light into the space. A statement mirror can anchor a living room wall the way art does, and smaller accent mirrors group well beside framed pieces on a gallery wall.

How do I clean a beaded or woven mirror?

Clean the glass with a soft cloth and a small amount of glass cleaner sprayed onto the cloth, never onto the frame. Dust beaded and wax-cord frames with a dry soft cloth or brush, and keep liquid cleaners away from the beadwork and cord.

MODERN DECORATIVE WALL MIRRORS FOR LIVING ROOM AND MORE

Decorative wall mirrors are powerful design elements that can transform any space. A large wall mirror in a living room instantly expands the perceived size of the room, creating a brighter and more open atmosphere. 

In a bedroom, a wall mirror adds a touch of elegance and provides a convenient spot for dressing. In the dining room, decorative wall mirrors for living room or dining room can create a dramatic focal point, reflecting light and adding depth. Even in smaller spaces like bathrooms and entryways, small wall mirrors or a wall decorative mirror can make a big impact. A big mirror for the wall in a lounge room can be a stylish and functional addition. Using wall mirrors for living rooms or other spaces is a great way to improve your interior.

AFRICAN WALL MIRRORS, HANDMADE IN SOUTH AFRICA

Every mirror here is made by hand in South Africa, and each one is closer to wall art than to hardware. The beaded designs draw on Southern Africa's centuries-old beadwork tradition: thousands of small glass beads worked over a metal frame, in colorways named for stars of the southern sky. Each product page names the craft, the materials, and the making behind the piece.

BEADED MIRRORS AND WOVEN MIRRORS

The beaded line pairs South African beadsmiths with a New York-based collaborating designer, a contemporary form built on a traditional craft. The woven line, previously its own collection and now part of this one, frames the glass in natural wood wrapped by hand in colored wax cord, with each piece made to order. Between them the collection runs from bold color to quiet texture, in round and organic silhouettes.

A MIRROR THAT WORKS LIKE ART

A handmade mirror does two jobs: it opens a room with light and reflection, and it holds the wall the way a framed piece would. Hang one above a vanity or console, let a statement size anchor a living room wall, or group an accent mirror into a gallery wall beside baskets and framed prints. Each product page lists exact dimensions and hanging guidance.
