A small round mirror seen at a low angle, its silvered face reflecting flatly with a bright sliver of light along the top edge.

A glass mirror is a smooth, polished piece of glass backed with a reflective metallic coating that creates a mirror-like surface for visual reflection.

Composition

Glass, silver

Handling Notes

  • Glass mirrors can be cut like regular glass
  • Score (the process of using a specialized tool with a hard wheel to create a shallow, continuous, superficial scratch on the surface of the glass) firmly and snap cleanly for best results
