Aarles Bronze Wall Mirror

This is a wall-mounted statement piece designed for durability. Because it is handmade by furniture artisans with a brass frame, it has a substantial build. We recommend identifying a wall stud for the most secure installation. If a stud is not available at your desired location, use heavy-duty toggle bolts or specialized drywall anchors rated for the mirror's weight to ensure it remains safely and levelly displayed.

Yes. Mirrors are excellent tools for creating an illusion of depth. The arched shape of this particular piece is specifically designed to draw the eye upward, which can make ceilings feel higher. Additionally, the unique yellow gold tinge on the mirror glass reflects light with a warm glow, helping to brighten darker corners and open up the feel of a small urban apartment or hallway.

This mirror features a timeless brass frame and is handmade to ensure long-term durability. While brass is a sophisticated and sturdy material, it is best suited for temperature-controlled indoor environments. In very humid or coastal climates, we recommend regular dusting and maintaining a consistent indoor humidity level to keep the brass finish looking pristine and to protect the integrity of the artisanal backing.

To preserve the craftsmanship of this handmade item, our care guidelines recommend dusting the brass frame regularly with a soft, dry cloth. For the gold-tinged glass, use a dedicated glass cleaner or mild soap and water applied to a cloth first—never spray directly onto the mirror. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive scrubbers, as these can damage the timeless brass finish and the artistic color of the glass.

When hanging a mirror above furniture like a console table or sofa, a common design rule is to choose a piece that is approximately two-thirds the width of the furniture below it. This mirror, at 24 inches wide and 40 inches tall, is ideal for narrow entryways or as a vertical accent in a modern living room. Measuring your wall space beforehand ensures the 40-inch height will have enough clearance to remain a balanced focal point.

For the most impact, place the mirror where it can reflect an interesting view, such as a window, a piece of art, or an open floor plan. The "pop of color" from the bronze-yellow glass makes it a perfect anchor for an entryway gallery or as a sophisticated contrast above a bedroom dresser. Its 1.5-inch depth allows it to sit prominently against the wall, emphasizing its "statement piece" status.
