Eppinette Gold Mirror

Given its solid aluminum construction, this mirror has a substantial weight that requires secure mounting. While it is designed for wall placement, we recommend identifying a wall stud for the most secure installation. If a stud is not available in your desired location, utilize high-quality heavy-duty toggle bolts or specialized drywall anchors rated for the mirror's weight to ensure long-term safety and stability.

This mirror is meticulously hand-cast from solid aluminum, a material prized in high-end furniture for being both lightweight and exceptionally durable. Unlike steel or iron, aluminum is naturally rust-resistant and will not warp or degrade when exposed to moisture. This makes it an ideal choice for maintaining its structural integrity and gold finish over time, even in varying home climates.

Absolutely. While all mirrors reflect light to create an illusion of space, the irregular, avant-garde shape of this mirror breaks up the rigid horizontal and vertical lines often found in small rooms or narrow hallways. By drawing the eye in multiple directions and adding visual depth through its triangular frame profile, it makes a confined space feel more open and dynamic rather than boxed-in.

Unlike mass-produced mirrors with thin, stamped frames, this mirror is hand-cast in sand molds. This artisanal process results in a solid, substantial frame with a unique texture and a distinctive triangular cross-section. This craftsmanship adds significant depth and a high-end, gallery-quality feel to the piece, ensuring that no two frames are exactly alike while providing superior durability compared to hollow or plastic alternatives.

Measuring 32.5 inches wide, this mirror is designed to serve as a bold focal point. For a balanced look, designers often recommend the "two-thirds rule," where the mirror is roughly two-thirds the width of the furniture below it. This makes it an excellent fit for entryways with a 48-to-60-inch console table or as a centered statement piece in a contemporary living room.

Yes. Because the frame is constructed from solid aluminum rather than wood or plated steel, it is highly resistant to the oxidation and warping typically caused by high humidity. Whether you are styling a bathroom or a home in a coastal region, the rust-resistant properties of the hand-cast aluminum ensure that the contemporary gold finish remains vibrant without the risk of corrosion.

To preserve the hand-cast gold finish, we recommend using a soft, dry, non-abrasive microfiber cloth to dust the frame regularly. If a deeper clean is needed for the glass, apply a small amount of glass cleaner to a cloth first—rather than spraying the mirror directly—to prevent liquid from seeping behind the frame or coming into contact with the finish. Avoid using harsh chemical solvents or ammonia-based cleaners on the aluminum frame to ensure the gold luster remains untarnished.
