The Foreson blue wall mirror was inspired by the French technique in which an artist painted the back of clear glass so that when viewed from the front, the painting is brought to life under the depth of the glass. This incredible piece takes that same tempered glass and displays a beveled mirror, centered in front of a beautiful blue, black and white abstract. Four strong steel hangers are attached to the back of the mirror for a quick and easy vertical or horizontal installation.

Q&A answers generated with AI assistance.
What is the best way to clean and maintain the finish of this decorative mirror?
Based on our expertise in furniture care, we recommend dusting the surface regularly with a soft, lint-free cloth. To maintain a streak-free shine on the glass and beveled mirror, use a non-abrasive glass cleaner or a mixture of mild soap and water. Because the abstract art is protected behind the tempered glass, the vibrant colors will remain shielded from cleaning agents and environmental wear.
What are the benefits of the tempered glass and beveled edges on this piece?
The center of this piece features a beveled mirror, which is angled at the edges to catch and reflect light from multiple directions, enhancing the room's overall brightness. Furthermore, the use of tempered glass provides superior durability and safety compared to standard glass. This construction is a hallmark of high-quality decorative accents, ensuring the piece remains a lasting focal point in your home.
Can this wall mirror be hung in different directions?
Yes. This piece is designed for maximum versatility to suit your specific wall layout. It features four heavy-duty steel hangers pre-installed on the back, allowing for a secure and level installation in either a vertical or horizontal orientation. This makes it an ideal choice for both tall, narrow entryways and wide, horizontal placements above a living room sofa.
What makes the "French technique" used in this mirror’s design unique?
This mirror is inspired by a classic French artistic method where the abstract design is painted onto the back of the glass. By viewing the blue, black, and white abstract pattern through the depth of the tempered glass, the colors appear more vibrant and protected. This technique, combined with the centered beveled mirror, creates a sophisticated, multi-layered look that adds contemporary flair to any room.
Is a large mirror like this suitable for a small urban apartment or a narrow hallway?
Absolutely. Utilizing a large mirror is a primary strategy for making compact urban spaces feel more expansive. By reflecting light and extending the visual sightlines, this 40-inch tall mirror can make a small living room or a narrow hallway feel significantly brighter and more open. Its slim 0.5-inch depth ensures it remains low-profile against the wall, preserving valuable walkway space.
How large should a mirror be when hanging it above a console table or sofa?
A professional design rule of thumb is that a mirror should be approximately two-thirds the width of the furniture it sits above. Measuring 30 inches wide and 40 inches tall, this rectangular mirror is perfectly scaled for standard console tables or as a vertical statement piece in a transition area. For much larger wall spaces, a 48-inch extra-large version of this design is also available to maintain proper visual proportion.
