GRANVÅG table mirror, pink, 23x33 cm

Mirror glass comprises mostly of ordinary glass with a reflective coating in some kind of metal. In the past it was common for the coating to contain lead or mercury – but over time, both of these metals have been shown to be harmful to people and the environment. That’s why, as of several years ago, IKEA has a total ban on using lead or mercury in our mirrors and instead it is non-toxic silver or aluminium that reflects your mirror image.

“I love simple line drawings, so when I designed the GRANVÅG mirrors I wanted to recreate the same graphic and airy expression. The thin steel frames are perfect since they’re strong and can be powder coated in vibrant colours. I also wanted to build in smart storage with rails and hooks to hang scarves, jewellery and other accessories. Extra practical for small space living. Hopefully people like the graphic nature of the mirrors, as well as their functionality and beauty.”
