Today, in residential and office interiors, you can see more and more framed mirrors. And this is good news. Modern interior fashion, of course, gravitates towards minimalism, but everything is fine in moderation.
Conciseness and restraint of shapes, clarity of lines - this is incredibly elegant and relevant, but a mirror surface without any design is much "alone", the surfaces of mirrors hanging boringly on the wall look chaotic and bring a complete disharmony inside. A frame is the best solution to deal with such a problem.
Dressing the mirrors in the most beautiful carved wicker frames of the past was considered a sign of wealth, luxury and impeccable taste. In principle, this is true in our time. Inside, decorated in a traditional, classic style, a frameless mirror looks "empty" and is clearly out of place. But a mirror, "dressed" in a frame made with craftsmanship, exclusive, natural wood, whose shade is in harmony with the general concept of color of the interior, will look organic and, so to speak, correct.
If we are talking about the interior, decorated in fashionable high-tech and art deco styles, then it is just as important to take care of the design of the mirrors. These directions of decoration are characterized by the complete harmony of all the functional and decorative elements of the space. To create a unified interior concept, you need to arrange each mirror surface, located "at full height", in the middle of the wall or just below the ceiling, in an elegant frame, whose design is completely in accordance with the general decision of room style.
Moreover, today the framing workshops are ready to create absolutely any frame in absolutely any style. For hi-tech and art deco, you can order a narrow, conservative wand frame for a chrome-plated aluminum mirror.
In general, a frame for decorating the surfaces of mirrors can be matched with any style of landscaping and perfectly integrated into any interior. A wide range of frame colors, a variety of textures, materials, decorating techniques, plus the experience and skill of modern frames allow you to create an exclusive frame for a mirror that is worthy of decoration.
In other words, the design of a mirror in a frame is necessary to give it completeness and refinement.
However, the wand serves not only a decorative function. Let's not forget the functionality of the frame. A mirror is still a glass surface and, as a result, fragile and very vulnerable.
A non-framed mirror surface does not have a long service life: rapid wear is possible, corners are inevitably chipped and so on. The frame is the one that protects the mirror from mechanical damage and "takes care" of the safety of the inhabitants of the space.
