The Wicket Standard: Choosing Mirrors That Reflect Ethical Craftsmanship
A mirror is a daily companion. It catches your reflection first thing in the morning, anchors a hallway, or opens up a small room. But behind the glass and frame lies a set of decisions that most shoppers never see: how the silvering was applied, what the frame is made from, and whether the piece was built to last a decade or just a few seasons. This guide lays out a practical standard — call it the Wicket Standard — for choosing mirrors that reflect not only your image but also thoughtful craftsmanship and long-term value. Who Needs This Standard and When If you are furnishing a home, styling a rental property, or specifying mirrors for a hospitality project, you face a flood of options. Online listings show the same oval mirror in twenty shops at wildly different prices.
