The Vegas mirror is aptly named as the mirror has a rustic golden glam to the design that creates a bold (and beautiful) statement to the room it's hung in. The mirror features three alternating folded hand weld rings/waves around the mirror. The rustic gold is hand painted on. The entire mirror piece is 30.5" in diameter and the mirror part is approximately 14.25" in diameter.

Mirror is secured with those metal prongs.
The hanging eyelet. The major flaw with the mirror is this part and trying to get it on the wall. It is impossible. Since the mirror waves, you can see the how it creates an issue with trying to hang this mirror. I had a heck of a time trying to get a screw into the that hanging hole. The wave makes the area between the nail head and that hanger piece on the mirror that much further because of the wave right above it. That is this mirrors biggest design flaw. Also, I want to note that the mirror does not come with any hanging screws or anchors for installation.
After contacting the company, they said the waves are very durable and suggested hanging it on one of the waves.
In the end, this is how I hung it. It was the only way. You just hang it on the wave that is closest to the wall. You can't see the nail using this method. The only hesitation I have with this method is what will happen during an earthquake.
All in all, even with the difficulty with the hanging, this is a mirror worth having. It makes a beautiful statement in our family room above the black piano. It is a beautiful and timeless piece that is both sturdy and durable. I love that the mirror portion is so big and that you can actually see yourself in it!
