The Sommarbo model mirror is rectangular but with beautifully crafted rounded borders. This detail makes it more pleasing to the eye because the curved shape makes the energy flows along the wall, which, according to Feng Shui experts, helps the room’s environment to feel more pleasant. It also brings us closer to nature thanks to the fact that it is made of rattan, so it is a mirror made with sustainable materials and natural fibers.
It is precisely in that rattan frame where the magic is hidden, not only for the beauty of its intricate and braided design but also because in its lower part, it has the small tray that makes the difference. This becomes the perfect place to leave those little things we like to always have on hand, such as keys, glasses, and more. This ideal mirror, which fits in any decoration and serves as auxiliary furniture, is sold for only $65 in Ikea’s US store and website. A bargain, right?
Also made of rattan is the Grinsbol model, with a diameter of 21,6 inches. A mirror with a very nice, rounded design, in which the rattan is the star of the invention. Ideal for you to place it in the living room, decorating with other elements such as small pictures, or just put it in the entryway of the house, or your bedroom. Its price is very low, costing only $25.
It’s ideal to fit a lot of furniture in several design trends, regardless of the color palette. To clean it you will have no problem. All you need to do is wipe it with a clean, dry cloth if you want it to remain intact over time. Rattan does not do well with humidity, so it is best to place it in a dry and cool room where the temperature remains uniform.
If the design of the Sommarbo model, or the Grinsbol, doesn’t quite convince you, you can find other options at Ikea that might suit you. For example, the Stockholm mirror. It also has a round design, with a discreet walnut veneer frame, and hides the same secret as the previous one, because if in its upper part it hardly leaves any space, in the back it has enough width to place various objects such as bottles, perfumes, jewelry or glasses. Its price? 70 dollars.
