Wood Mirrors

Sizes and shapes to consider for a wooden mirror

Whether you're brightening a hallway, creating a sense of space in a living room, or adding the finishing touch to a bedroom, a wooden mirror offers both function and warmth. The shape and size you choose will set the tone for your space.

For a balanced look in smaller rooms, consider a round wood frame mirror to soften angles and add a sense of flow. In larger spaces, a full-length timber mirror not only introduces an extra sense of light and space, it also brings texture and depth. Rectangular mirrors work well above console tables, while arched or irregular shapes can create a unique focal point.

The materials and finishes available in wooden mirrors

One of the biggest draws of a wooden mirror is the variety of finishes available. From light oak and natural pine to rich walnut or black-stained timber, there’s a tone to suit every interior.

If you’re after a relaxed, coastal feel, opt for whitewashed or blonde timber frames that pair well with linen textures and soft neutrals. For something more dramatic or modern, a dark wood frame mirror offers contrast and sophistication. Prefer something rustic or farmhouse-inspired? Look for raw edge finishes, white washes, or distressed timber for a more lived-in feel.

You’ll also find wooden mirrors in combinations of materials, like timber with metal accents or rattan inlays, These are ideal for layering texture and character in your home. For even more styling options, browse our home décor collection.

How to choose the right wooden mirror for your style

Choosing the right timber mirror starts with your room’s overall aesthetic and what role you want the mirror to play. Is it a practical addition or a statement feature?

• Scandi and minimalist spaces pair well with clean-lined, slim timber frames in light finishes.

• Boho or coastal homes benefit from arched or round mirrors in bleached or woven wood textures.

• Classic or heritage styles shine with ornate timber details or deep-toned wood frame mirror designs.

• Modern and industrial spaces can balance out sleek materials with a bold, chunky timber frame.

Caring for your wooden mirror

Keeping your wooden mirror in great shape is easy with a few simple habits. Dust the timber frame regularly using a soft cloth or duster to prevent buildup. For deeper cleans, lightly dampen a cloth with water or a gentle timber-friendly cleaner; just be sure to avoid harsh chemicals that could damage the finish.

To clean the glass, use a streak-free cleaner and spray it directly onto a cloth (not the mirror) to avoid moisture seeping into the timber. And if your timber-framed mirror is exposed to sunlight, rotate or shift it occasionally to prevent uneven fading around the edges.

FAQs

Can I hang a wooden mirror in the bathroom?

Yes, as long as the frame is sealed or treated to withstand humidity. Just ensure it’s not in direct contact with water or steam to extend its lifespan. Untreated or unsealed wood can absorb moisture and swell or warp, damaging the frame and potentially leading to mould issues.

Are wooden mirrors heavy?

Timber-framed mirrors can be heavier than metal or plastic options, especially if they're large. Be sure to use proper wall anchors and mounting hardware for safety to prevent the weight of the frame from pulling it away from the wall.

How do I style a wood frame mirror?

Pair it with natural textures like rattan, linen, and ceramics for a cohesive look. A wooden mirror also works beautifully as a grounding element in brighter or more colourful spaces. Styling is largely up to your tastes, but combining it with other natural elements is a tried and proven option.
