The mirror is beautiful, however it arrived damaged. I believe this is due to the construction of the item rather than packaging. The clips that hold the back of the mirror in place are too flimsy for the weight of the mirror (imagine the clips on the back of a picture frame used to open the back to insert a photo) Instead of hassling with shipping it back I had the mirror repaired. It looks great, but again, weak construction. The first photo shows where the mirror came away from the frame due to the back not being strong enough to hold it in place. You can also see where the small amount of adhesive used is still on the mirror.
