Bevel Mirror

A bevel mirror is a mirror featuring angled or sloped edges around the perimeter, where the glass is cut and polished to create a decorative bevelled frame effect. This detailing adds depth, light refraction, and a refined finish without the need for a separate frame. In trade and commercial interiors, bevel mirrors are valued for their timeless appearance, versatility, and suitability for repeat specification across residential and hospitality projects.

How It’s Used in Commercial & Trade Interiors

Bevel mirrors are widely specified across a range of commercial and trade-led environments, including:

  • Hotels and serviced apartments, where they enhance bedrooms, bathrooms, and entrance areas.

  • Show homes and marketing suites, adding visual interest while maintaining broad appeal.

  • Build-to-rent and residential developments, offering a neutral yet premium design solution.

  • Retail and office interiors, where clean lines and light reflection improve spatial perception.

Trade buyers focus on consistent sizing, safe edge finishing, and reliable availability, particularly when mirrors are required across multiple rooms or properties.

Materials, Design & Build Quality

Bevel mirrors are typically produced using:

  • High-quality mirrored glass, with precision-cut bevelled edges for clarity and uniformity.

  • Polished or softened bevels, designed to catch and reflect light subtly.

  • Minimal or concealed backing systems, allowing the mirror itself to remain the focal point.

  • Commercial-grade fixings, suitable for secure wall mounting in hospitality and residential settings.

For trade buyers, important considerations include edge safety, glass thickness, finish consistency, and compliance with UK interior standards, ensuring durability and long-term performance.

Why Trade Buyers Choose Bevel Mirrors

Trade buyers specify bevel mirrors for several practical and commercial reasons:

  • Timeless design: Bevelled edges suit both classic and contemporary interiors.

  • Design flexibility: Works seamlessly with console tables, dressing tables, sideboards, and wall lighting.

  • Visual enhancement: Adds depth and light without introducing additional materials or colours.

  • Repeatability: Neutral styling supports consistent specification across phased or multi-unit projects.
