Etched and patterned mirror
Patterned mirror adds etched borders, sandblasted designs, bevels and shapes to a standard mirror, making it a decorative feature for homes, hotels and shops.
What is patterned mirror?
Patterned mirror is a mirror decorated with etched, sandblasted, engraved or bevelled designs. The patterned areas catch light differently from the clear reflection around them, turning a plain mirror into a feature.
Popular patterned mirror designs include etched borders, stripes, geometric patterns, Venetian-style bevelled panels and company logos for reception areas and shops. Designs can be subtle or bold.
Patterned mirror is made from silver mirror or tinted mirror, cut to size and safety backed where needed.
