Affordable Mirrored Coffee Tables That Look Far More Expensive

Mirrored coffee tables bring light, a sense of space and a touch of glamour to a living room, but the line between refined and overdone can be fine. In this guide we explain the design details that make a mirrored table look far more expensive than it is. We look at mirror quality and why distortion gives a piece away, the importance of smooth bevelled edges and tight joins, and why a solid frame and a simple shape matter so much. We also compare mirrored and glass tables and explain how mixed materials can make a table feel more tailored.

We cover where mirrored tables work best and how to care for them, finishing with a short FAQ on practicality, scratches and small rooms....
