Bevy Round Mirror 61cm Smoke with Bevelled Edge by Umbra

In stock
Sale price$149.00 Regular price$299.00

The one you buy when the wall is already half full.

At 61cm the Umbra Bevy is the size that fits where a statement mirror will not. Beside a doorway, above a narrow console, in the gap between two windows, or as part of a group rather than the whole event. It is the everyday Bevy, and often the one people buy second, after living with the larger version somewhere else in the house.

The smoke tint is what separates Bevy from a plain round mirror. The glass carries a soft grey cast that takes the hard edge off reflected light, so it reads warmer against timber and softer in a room lit by lamps rather than downlights. Paired with the bevelled edge, ground on an angle around the full circumference, you get definition without a frame.

What does the bevelled edge do?
The perimeter of the glass is polished at an angle rather than cut square, creating a narrow refracting band around the edge. It reads as a border, so the mirror looks finished without a metal or timber surround competing with it.

At 2.88kg it is light enough to hang almost anywhere, including plasterboard with appropriate anchors, which is not true of the larger sizes. That makes it the practical choice for renters and for walls where you would rather not go hunting for a stud. It sits alongside the rest of the range in our mirrors collection.

How does it compare to the other Bevy sizes?
This is the smaller of the two rounds. There is a 91cm round in the same smoke finish for a wall that can carry a genuine focal point, and a 61 x 91cm oval if you want the same glass in an elongated shape. All three share the tint and the bevel, so they group well on one wall.

It makes an easier gift than the larger sizes, because the recipient does not need a particular wall in mind to use it. Good for a housewarming, a first flat, or someone who has just repainted and is starting the room again. See the wider Umbra collection for the rest.

Why you'll love it

  • Fits walls that cannot take a statement mirror
  • Smoke tint warms reflected light where clear glass reads cold
  • Bevelled edge gives definition without a frame
  • At 2.88kg, light enough for plasterboard with the right anchors
  • Groups well with the other two Bevy shapes
  • The versatile size, rather than the committed one

Where the smaller size wins

  • Beside a doorway, where a large round mirror always looks slightly crowded
  • In a group of two or three, mixing this with the oval for a considered wall
  • Above a narrow hall console, centred, with nothing else on the wall
  • In a rental, where the low weight means standard anchors will do
  • In a small bedroom, above a chest of drawers rather than opposite the bed
