High Gloss and Walnut Beds vs Mirror-Finish Beds: Which Suits Your Lifestyle?

High gloss and walnut beds and mirror finish beds sit at opposite ends of modern bedroom style. Walnut paired with gloss balances a smooth reflective surface with the warmth of natural grain, creating a relaxed bedroom that is easy to live with. Mirrored beds fill a room with reflected light and bring a glamorous, hotel inspired feel, though they need more frequent cleaning and more careful placement. In this guide we compare the two across atmosphere, daily cleaning, durability, natural light and room size. We explain which style directions suit each bed, from mid century and Scandinavian looks to Hollywood Regency glamour, and how to choose metal finishes, textiles and wall colours that support them. We also consider households with children and pets, show how the two ideas can be combined in one room and share practical checks before you decide, so you can choose the bed that fits how you really use your bedroom....
