Gold and Silver Frame Finishes
A gold wall mirror brings warmth and a reflective edge to the frame itself, not just the glass, and tends to suit rooms with existing gold or brass detailing elsewhere. Silver gives a cooler, slightly more contemporary alternative with the same reflective quality. Both finishes catch light differently depending on the room's existing lighting, so it's worth checking a swatch under your own bulbs rather than relying on how it looks in a photograph.
Carved Louis Detailing Versus Plainer Contemporary Frames
A carved Louis mirror carries raised detailing across the frame, drawing on classic French design, and works best in rooms already built around similarly detailed furniture. A plainer contemporary wall mirror keeps the frame flat and simple, letting the mirror itself do the work rather than the surround. Mixing a carved mirror into an otherwise plain room can work well as a single statement piece, but pairing it with other heavily detailed furniture can start to feel cluttered.
Overmantel and Living Room Placement
An overmantel mirror is sized and shaped specifically to sit above a fireplace, which is different from a general wall mirror living room shoppers might hang elsewhere, since the proportions are built around the mantel below it rather than a freestanding wall. Away from a fireplace, a large wall mirror works well opposite a window, where it reflects natural light back into the room, or above a console table or sideboard to add height to an otherwise low piece of furniture.
Getting the Size Right for Your Wall
Mirror wall placement depends on more than just available space, since a mirror hung too high or too low changes how the room feels even if the frame itself is the right size. As a general guide, the centre of the mirror should sit roughly at eye level for the average person using the room, adjusted slightly higher if it's going above furniture like a console table or fireplace.
Hand Finished in Our Own Workshop
Every wall mirror in this range is framed and finished in our own workshop, whether it's a carved gold leaf design or a simpler painted frame, which is part of why the detail holds its shape over time. As a family run business, we deliver every order using a two-man team to mainland UK, and we send free paint swatches by post so you can check a frame finish against your existing room before ordering.

FAQs
Will a gold wall mirror clash with silver furniture elsewhere in the room?
It can create contrast rather than a clean match, so if you already have a lot of silver detailing, a silver-framed mirror or a plainer painted frame tends to blend more easily.
How high should a large wall mirror be hung above a console table or sideboard?
Leave a gap of roughly 10 to 15cm between the top of the furniture and the bottom of the frame, so the mirror reads as a separate piece rather than sitting directly on top of it.
Is an overmantel mirror a fixed size, or can it be used above furniture other than a fireplace?
It can be used elsewhere, though the proportions are designed around typical mantel widths, so measure your intended wall space rather than assuming it will suit any furniture below it.
Does a carved Louis mirror need different cleaning to a plain frame?
Yes, the glass cleans the same way, but the carved detailing should be dusted with a soft brush rather than wiped with glass cleaner, since liquid can dull the gilt or paint finish over time.
Can a wall mirror be hung on a stud wall, or does it need a solid wall fixing?
Most can be hung on a stud wall with the correct fixings for the mirror's weight, though it's worth checking the specific fixing recommendations for larger or heavier framed designs before drilling.

I just wanted to drop you both an email to say thank you for getting the bed to us yesterday. Obviously, there was a delay with the delivery, but you managed the situation perfectly, and we would not hesitate in recommending Crown French.

Well, it has finally happened. My lovely Cabinet was delivered today after all those months of discussing it with you. I now have it, and it is absolutely lovely.
