Mirror glass comprises mostly ordinary glass with a reflective coating made of metal. In the past, it was common for the coating to contain lead or mercury, but over time both of these metals have been shown to be harmful to people and the environment. Since 2009, IKEA has had a total ban on using lead or mercury in our mirrors. Instead, silver or aluminium is used to reflect your mirror image.

Behind the mirror, you can hang tomorrow’s outfit and clothes that aren’t ready for the laundry basket quite yet. No clothes piles, no unnecessary loads of laundry – and you can treat yourself to a few extra minutes in bed, too.
