hether refurbishing or creating a new bathroom the SOMARIS mirror cabinet is a sleek and
stylish addition. The appearance is minimal and precise, with no decorative handles, additional trims, or finishes. The sides of the cabinet are available in four different finishes, mirrored, white, black and an oak

The doors are mirrored on both sides and can be configured as either a classic symmetrical cabinet or as an asymmetrical version. As the cabinet is not split down the middle there is a door that can be opened without disturbing the full mirror image on the other side.

The LED lights at the sides provide perfect illumination for washing, shaving and the application of cosmetics, but can be dimmed if needed.
