Gallery Direct Higgins round wall mirror, black, Ø 80 cm, bevelled glass

Name: Gallery Direct Higgins round wall mirror, black, Ø 80 cm, bevelled glass
Brand: Gallery Direct

Higgins is a round wall mirror from the British brand Gallery Direct, here in black at 80 cm across. The frame is a narrow painted metal ring just 2 cm deep — thin enough that from a few metres away it reads as a single line drawn around the glass rather than as a surround. Attention stays on the reflection and on the perfect circle the mirror cuts into the wall. The bevelled edge — a detail you only see up close The glass has a bevelled edge: ground and polished at an angle right around the rim. The effect works two ways. A narrow band beside the frame refracts light differently from the rest of the mirror, so raking light produces a faint prismatic outline; and the reflection gains a defined, glassy border instead of simply stopping flat. It is a treatment associated with higher-end mirrors and the main reason Higgins looks more expensive than its simple form suggests. Build and weight — what it means for the wall The mirror weighs 6.5 kg net (8 kg boxed). A metal frame is fitted over the glass and an MDF back panel closes it from behind, stiffening the assembly and protecting the silvering — hence the three materials in the specification: glass, steel and wood-based board. It hangs from a keyhole slot in the back panel, in portrait orientation. That is the crucial installation fact: the whole 6.5 kg hangs from a single point. The screw or plug must therefore suit the wall — in plasterboard that means a proper load-rated anchor or hitting a stud; an ordinary nail or a generic plug in the board alone will not do. No assembly is required; the mirror comes out of the box ready to hang. Where it works An 80 cm circle is a versatile size: large enough to serve over a hallway console or a cloakroom basin, yet restrained enough not to dominate a living-room wall. The black frame ties together schemes with dark joinery, black handles or metal hardware, and against a pale wall it reads as a graphic accent. The soft circular form balances a room dominated by straight lines — above a rectangular console, over a fireplace, or paired in a row with a second mirror from the same family. Care is simple: the maker recommends wiping with a dry cloth. Avoid spraying cleaner directly onto the glass — liquid running to the rim can work its way under the frame over time. Specifications Collection: Higgins (Gallery Direct); size Large Manufacturer code / EAN: 5059413256653 Shape: round Dimensions: 80 cm diameter, 2 cm deep Net weight: 6.5 kg; gross weight: 8 kg Colour: black (painted frame) Materials: mirror glass, steel frame, MDF back panel Glass edge: bevelled Hanging: keyhole slot, portrait orientation Assembly: not required Care: wipe with a dry cloth Worth knowing before you order A single fixing point. A keyhole means one screw carrying all 6.5 kg — choosing the right anchor matters more here than on a mirror with two hangers. Higgins comes in two diameters: 60 cm (Small, EAN 5059413256660) and 80 cm (Large — this version). If the mirrors are to form a composition, the two sizes pair well. The collection offers three frame finishes: black, antique gold and antique silver. The lifestyle images show several variants side by side — this listing is the black version only. The frame is narrow and painted, so protect its edge in transit and while hanging; scuffs show more readily on black than on the antiqued finishes.Show more
