How to list Mirrors on JADUZ

A strong mirror listing gives the overall frame size and the glass size separately in inches and centimetres, the weight, the frame material and technique, and how it hangs or stands. It says whether hanging hooks are included, how the glass is packed for delivery, and how to clean the frame without damaging it.

This page is for makers listing a mirror on JADUZ, and for the AI assistant helping them. The general rules on names, honest claims and the reply format are on the main JADUZ listing guide. A mirror is two things at once, a handmade frame and a piece of glass, and a good listing describes both.

What to measure and how to state it

  • Overall size: the full frame, width by height, for example "24 × 18 in (61 × 46 cm)". For a round mirror, give the diameter: "20 in (51 cm) across".
  • Glass size: the part you actually see yourself in, for example "glass 16 × 10 in (41 × 25 cm)". A wide carved frame can make the glass much smaller than the overall size suggests.
  • Depth: how far the frame stands off the wall, for example "1.5 in (4 cm) deep".
  • Weight: in grams, for example "2,400 g". Buyers need it to choose between a nail, a hook or a wall plug.
  • Glass thickness: in millimetres, if you know it.

Then say how it hangs: D-rings, a wire, a hook on the back or a jute loop, and whether it can hang both upright and sideways. For a table mirror, say whether the stand folds or is fixed.

Materials and techniques to name

Name the frame material: wood (name the wood only if you know it), bamboo, cane, jute rope, terracotta, brass, hand-painted wood in rickshaw-art style, mosaic or embroidered fabric. Name the technique: carving, weaving, coiling, hand painting, inlay. Say what finish the frame has, such as varnish, wax or bare.

Be clear about the glass. The frame is your handwork; the glass is usually a standard mirror sheet you bought. Write "hand-carved frame with mirror glass", not "handmade mirror". Mention a bevelled edge only if it has one.

Delivery and packing

Glass breaks, and buyers worry about it. Say briefly how you pack a mirror, for example corner guards, cardboard and bubble wrap. Do not write "unbreakable" or promise a free replacement unless you will actually give one.

Care

Spray glass cleaner onto a cloth, never straight onto the mirror, so liquid does not soak into the frame or the back of the glass. Dust cane, jute and carved wood with a soft dry brush. Keep cane, jute, unsealed wood and painted frames out of bathroom steam unless you know the finish can take it.

Example names

  • Hand-carved wooden wall mirror, 24 × 18 in (61 × 46 cm)
  • Round cane-frame mirror with woven border, 20 in (51 cm) across
  • Rickshaw-art hand-painted wall mirror, small
  • Jute rope round mirror with hanging loop
  • Terracotta tabletop mirror with stand, 8 × 6 in (20 × 15 cm)

Questions buyers ask

  • How big is the glass itself?
  • How heavy is it, and what do I need to hang it?
  • Does it come with hooks or a hanging wire?
  • Can it hang in a bathroom?
  • How is it packed so it does not break on the way?
  • Can it hang sideways as well as upright?

Words to avoid

Leave out "best quality", "luxury", "100% original" with nothing behind it, "last piece" unless your stock shows it, invented discounts, ALL CAPS and emojis. Do not call a frame antique or vintage unless it truly is old, and do not call it solid wood if it is board or plywood.

Good to know

Should I give the frame size or the glass size?

Both, separately. The overall frame size tells the buyer how much wall it needs; the glass size tells them how much they will actually see. For example: overall 24 × 18 in (61 × 46 cm), glass 16 × 10 in (41 × 25 cm).

I did not make the glass. Can I still call the mirror handmade?

Call the frame handmade and name the glass plainly, for example 'hand-carved mango wood frame with mirror glass' if you know the wood. Buyers understand that the glass is bought in; what they are paying for is your frame, so describe it well.

How should I state the weight of a mirror?

Weigh the mirror itself, without packing, and write it in grams, for example 2,400 g. Buyers use the weight to choose a nail, a hook or a wall plug, so a guess can lead to a mirror falling. Say what hanging fittings are already on the back.

Can I say the mirror is fine for a bathroom?

Only if the frame can take damp. Cane, jute, unsealed wood and painted frames can swell, spot or peel in steam. If you have not tested it, write 'best in a dry room' instead.
