The tapering shape draws the eye upward, which helps in a room with a lower ceiling.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe glass is held in the frame by two small metal fixings. Hang it with the centre of the glass about 145 cm from the floor for a comfortable eye level, or lower above a sideboard so the two read together.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eOpposite a window, a mirror sends daylight further into the room, and beside a lamp it adds warmth in the evening. Teak needs little care: wipe the frame with a soft dry cloth, and use a light teak oil once a year if the timber looks dry.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt suits homes with restored teak furniture, and it also works in newer interiors as a single sculptural piece on a plain wall. Photos show the frame and glass from several angles, including close views of the fixings.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eH 550mm x W 350mm\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Fox \u0026 Wedge Vintage","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56209397743938,"sku":null,"price":495.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0795\/9271\/8658\/files\/p6k6zz_jpg_37dc2952-920d-42e3-9d08-081ff82febc6.jpg?v=1789949048","url":"https:\/\/bazaa.com.au\/products\/danish-asymmetrical-wall-mirror-in-teak-c-1960","provider":"Bazaa","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
