Best statement mirrors to decorate your wall (2023)

A

good mirror is for more than just checking your reflection.

They can make small spaces appear larger, help funnel daylight around the room, and if you choose the right ones, act as statement pieces of wall art in their own right.

Shopping for one is part of the fun of decorating your home. There are more options than you can imagine but we’ve curated a selection of the best, which you can find in the second half of this article.

But first, a few decorating tips:

How to style your home with mirrors

The internet , especially Pinterest, is packed with interiors advice on how to boost your home’s style credentials with mirrors.

If you’ve decorated a feature wall, hanging one in the centre can act as an anchor, or try hanging your piece on an opposite wall to reflect the pattern and whip up extra wallpaper out of nowhere. They can also add interest to gallery walls when interspersed with framed images and artwork.

Similarly, hanging them by a wall light or flower vase (dried, real or artificial will all work) will give you double the glow or petals as appropriate.

Meanwhile, fans of Japanese artist Yayoi Kusama (her work at the Tate is pictured above) could try placing them adjacent or opposite to each other to try and emulate some of her infinity magic at home.
