Bohemian Sunburst Wall Mirror

A round mirror at the centre, and radiating out from it a burst of metal leaves finished in teal and gold. The leaves are shaped and set individually rather than pressed as one piece, so the surface has genuine depth and the whole thing catches light differently as you move across a room.

The mirror itself is compact, which is the right decision. This is a decorative piece rather than something to check an outfit in, and a larger glass would flatten the effect of the surround. It reads best on a wall with space around it, above a console table, a fireplace or a bed, where the sunburst can spread without hitting a picture frame or a shelf. Hang it where a lamp or a window rakes across the leaves from the side, since flat frontal light loses most of the depth the layering gives it.

Teal and gold is a warmer pairing than the brass-only sunbursts that dominate this look, and it sits more comfortably in a room with plants, rattan or patterned textiles than in a strictly minimal one. It hangs from a single fixing on the back. Dust the leaves occasionally with a soft brush, since the recesses between them collect more than a flat frame would.
