An arch mirror brings a defined silhouette to any bathroom, bedroom or hallway wall, with the curved top softening rectangular tile grids and flat cabinetry lines. The Blue Space stocks arch mirrors in wall-hung and floor-standing formats, covering bathroom-rated options with anti-fog and LED lighting through to decorative bedroom frames in brass, black and natural timber finishes.
What is an arch mirror and where is it used?
An arch mirror is a mirror with a flat bottom edge and a semicircular or pointed curved top. It suits bathrooms, entryways, living rooms and bedrooms. In bathrooms it works well above a single vanity basin where a rectangular mirror would read as too severe. In living spaces it functions as a decorative focal point on a feature wall or leaning against a wall as a full-length floor mirror.
Sizes available and how to choose the right one
Arch mirrors for bathrooms typically range from 500 mm wide up to 900 mm wide, with heights between 700 mm and 1200 mm. Full-length floor and wall arch mirrors run from 1500 mm to 1800 mm tall. For a single vanity, match the mirror width to within 50-100 mm of the basin width. For a double vanity, two arch mirrors side by side read better than one wide rectangular mirror, and each should be roughly 500-600 mm wide.
- Small arch mirrors (500-600 mm wide): suited to powder rooms and compact bathrooms
- Standard arch mirrors (700-800 mm wide): most common bathroom format, suits 750-900 mm vanities
- Large arch mirrors (900 mm and above): suited to wide single vanities or as statement pieces
- Full-length arch mirrors (1500-1800 mm tall): floor-leaning or wall-hung for bedrooms and dressing rooms
Frame finishes and materials
Arch mirrors come in framed and frameless versions. Frameless arch mirrors use polished or bevelled glass edges with no surround, which suits minimal or Japandi-style bathrooms. Framed options cover a wide range. Black arch mirrors are the most searched finish in Australia and work in both matte and gloss powder-coat aluminium or steel frames. Gold and brass arch mirrors suit warmer palettes. Timber and rattan arch mirrors are common in bedroom and living room applications but are generally not suitable for wet areas due to moisture sensitivity.
- Matte black: suits white, grey and concrete-look bathrooms
- Brushed brass or gold: pairs with warm-toned stone benchtops and tapware
- Chrome or silver: neutral option that matches most tapware finishes
- Natural timber or oak-look: decorative use only, not wet-area rated
- Frameless: suits minimal and modern bathrooms
Arch mirrors with LED lighting and anti-fog
LED arch mirrors include backlit or front-lit strip lighting built into the frame or behind the glass. They provide functional task lighting above a vanity without a separate light fitting. Anti-fog coatings use a thin heating element bonded to the back of the mirror glass, keeping the surface clear after a shower. Look for models with IP44 or IP54 ratings for wet-area bathroom installation. LED arch mirrors typically draw 20-40 W and connect to a standard 240 V wall switch or a demister pad switch.
Arch mirror shaving cabinets
Arch mirror shaving cabinets combine the arch silhouette with a recessed or surface-mounted storage cabinet behind the mirror face. They suit bathrooms where bench space is limited, as the cabinet holds toiletries behind the mirror. Recessed models sit flush with the wall cavity and require a stud cavity of at least 100 mm depth. Surface-mounted models project 100-150 mm from the wall. See the full range at bathroom mirror cabinets and shaving cabinets.
How arch mirrors pair with bathroom fittings
Finish consistency across the mirror frame, tapware and cabinetry hardware is the most reliable way to create a coherent bathroom. A black arch mirror pairs directly with matte black basin mixers and cabinet handles. A brushed brass frame references warm-toned tapware finishes. Browse all bathroom mirrors for broader shape comparisons, or pair your mirror selection with a bathroom vanity and matching basin taps to lock in a consistent finish scheme before ordering.
