The mirror looks exactly as pictured.  Came well-packaged and without any defects.  It is not heavy so easy to hang.  Only problem is that the wall bracket hardware and instructions that came with the mirror would probably work great for a rectangular mirror, but not for an oval one hung in the vertical position.  The wall brackets would be visible if mounted as instructed.  We just used standard pictured hangers which worked fine since the mirror is not very heavy.
