Beautiful mirror. It was easy to hang with very careful, precise measurements. I lost the template included, which I’m not sure how it would have helped. I flipped mirror upside down on a soft surface, measured from longest point (starburst) to hanging hole, placed mirror against the wall where I wanted it, marked where longest point hit with a pencil and using a level, measured length (previously taken) to where hanging hole should be, then drilled in the screw. I did it without any help, but having another person help will make it much, much easier. It’s a dull, muted gold, not brassy at all, and there’s no distortion in the mirror, although it is used more for decorative vs functional purposes. Excellent price for the size and quality.
