This mirror is really beautiful in person.  It looks lovely in my small yellow bathroom.  It hangs flush to the wall so it is not cumbersome, which was what I wanted- I did not want a mirror that jutted out from the wall because I have a small vanity.  The scalloped edge looks beautiful with the opaque border.  Just note that the opaque border is just that, so depending on what color your wall is, the color may show through the glass border.  My wall is light yellow so it looks fine, but other darker colors might change the look of the mirror.  It seems to be a good quality mirror- it is a good thinckness yet not too heavy, and has a clear, crisp brilliance to it.  I am thrilled!
