Rectangular mirrors

The rectangular mirror fulfills a simple intention: to introduce light, create a focal point and optimize everyday use. Whether you're looking for a wall-mounted mirror to enlarge an entranceway, a free-standing version for a dressing room or a model suitable for the bathroom, the essential remains the same: choose dimensions, frame and mounting to suit the space and use.

The rectangular mirror comes in a variety of formats and finishes, from the small model above a washbasin to the large, full-height mirror for a bedroom. A wood frame adds warmth and texture, while metal highlights an industrial or contemporary aesthetic. The choice of glass affects both maintenance and use: classic glass for the living room, anti-fog glass for the bathroom. Check the depth and weight of the mirror and the compatibility of the fixings with the type of wall to ensure a long-lasting installation.

Choose according to use and style

For an entrance, prefer a horizontal or slightly vertical rectangular mirror, positioned above a console to improve circulation and brightness. In a dressing room, a free-standing mirror or a large wall-mounted version makes fitting easier and creates a sense of space. In the bathroom, opt for treated glass and a moisture-resistant frame such as aluminum or varnished wood. Depending on the style you're after, opt for a thin brass frame for a refined touch, a thick wooden frame for a Scandinavian feel, or a matte black frame for a contemporary interior.

Finish, installation and maintenance

Frame finish influences visual rendering and maintenance. Wooden frames require regular maintenance and are best suited to dry rooms, while metal offers greater resistance. When installing a mirror, measure the useful height and leave the appropriate distance between the bottom of the mirror and the floor to support the furniture. For fixing, select anchors and hooks sized to the weight of the mirror; for larger rooms, opt for reinforced fixing or professional installation. Clean glass with a non-abrasive product and a microfiber cloth, and avoid aggressive sprays on treated frames.

A few concrete criteria make the choice easier: first define the dimensions according to the ceiling height and width of the supporting furniture, then validate the type of fixing according to the wall (plasterboard, brick, concrete). Also consider glass treatment if the mirror is to be resistant to humidity. These elements guarantee aesthetic and functional integration, while protecting your investment.

In summary, a rectangular mirror combines utility and style when chosen for its dimensions, frame and fixability. Our selection highlights models suitable for the entrance hall, living room and bathroom, to enrich every fashionable room in the home.
