What is a mirror and cupboard called?
What a mirror and cupboard is called depends on the design. A cupboard fronted with a mirror that gets mounted on a wall, usually above a bathroom sink, is a medicine cabinet. Bureaus are dressers with mirrors mounted on top, while vanities are table-like pieces that often have cabinets and drawers for storage, including a mirror. Mirrors can also be a feature on the fronts of other types of cabinets, such as wardrobes and highboys. In this case, you would normally refer to the furniture piece with the term "mirrored," as in a “mirrored highboy” or a “mirrored wardrobe.” On 1stDibs, shop a diverse assortment of case goods.
