      @Ivanov_d Mine arrived in one piece, though I never got a notification from the danish postal system, so I had to find it through customer service, that couldn’t give me a danish tracking number, but fortunately the guy at the post office was a bright kid, that could find it from the description with ‘fragile’ and ‘glass’ written all over it.

      Lucky you. It seems like somebody stepped on the package and broke it.

        I got mine luckily in one piece. But it did have a small chip on one of the edges. Possible damage through process of sanding off edges…
        By the way, how to be 100% which side is correct? One looks slightly more reflective than other but I am not sure :/

          @uros76 Chris told me that the side with the protective film on is the ‘outside’ of the mirror.

            @Ivanov_d and I are already in contact by private message. I am sorry that the mirror arrived damaged. I am already in contact with the shipping company. Unfortunately, @Ivanov_d did not complain about the external damage to the wooden box when he accepted it or refused to accept it. Now it will be very difficult to prove anything to the shipping company, the company will now claim that @Ivanov_d broke it after they brought it to him. As it looks, due to this omission, the burden of proof now lies with us and that is going to be damn difficult…

                Protective film? Mine did not have any protective film.
                @Goldjunge_Chriz can you indicate how do I recognize which side is which?

                  that’s true. There was no film attached to one of the mirrors at the factory. then that was probably yours :) the film also has no function, but is simply intended to show the correct side.

                  If you compare both sides with each other and hold them in the light, you should notice a side that is a little lighter and reflects better. this is the coated side, i.e. the side you look into. The other side has a little less mirror effect.

                    Yaaay lucky lottery winner :D I did it this way and hoped it’s correct. Thanks for confirming it.
                    I am now waiting for a frame to be built. Then assembly and mounting on wall…

                      I luckily got mine in one piece too, since the box seemed a bit roughed out.
                      I have a small chip on one of the edges, but probably doesn’t interfere with anything.
                      I haven’t tested anything out yet, just want to make sure it was safe :D

                        it has always been like this 😅 you can often see that the boxes had to go through a lot, but that’s why the mirrors are so well packed that nothing happens anyway ;) so far the mirrors have always arrived safely.

                        ivanov_d had the bad luck that someone walked around on his package and stepped on it several times (there are many shoe prints on it) and that the box was probably misused as a ramp or something. It would have needed an armored wardrobe as shipping packaging to avoid damage here …
