About the Arched Mirror Design
The mirrors are what set Velora apart. Rather than a full mirrored door, each centre door carries a tall oval mirror with an arched top, inset into the door with the white finish framing it on all sides. It is a softer, more decorative treatment than the flat mirrored panels most wardrobes use, and it does something a full mirror cannot: the arch gives the front a shape.
On a plain white wardrobe that matters. Without the mirrors the doors would be flat and featureless; with them the front has a clear focal point and a curve, which is rare on furniture at this level and almost unheard of on a German wardrobe, where the default is uncompromisingly rectilinear. If you have been looking at wardrobes that all feel a bit severe, this is the one that isn't.
The handles carry the same idea through. They are slim black bars with rounded ends, echoing the curve of the mirror rather than sitting in contrast to it – vertical on the doors, horizontal on the drawers. Black against white is a sharp, contemporary contrast, and on a front this restrained the handles and the mirrors are the only two details, which is exactly enough.
Below the mirrored doors sit two drawers, built into the carcase rather than added as an afterthought. They are the practical half of the design: somewhere for underwear, socks and small items that would otherwise be piled on a shelf, and enough for most people to leave a chest of drawers out of the room entirely.
Sizes and Layout
Four widths are offered, and the internal arrangement changes with each.
-
136cm – 3 doors. Two compartments of 90cm and 45cm, with the mirrored centre door and the two drawers set into the 90cm section.
-
181cm – 4 doors. Three compartments of 45cm, 90cm and 45cm, with two mirrored centre doors and the drawers in the 90cm centre.
-
226cm – 5 doors. Three compartments of 90cm, 45cm and 90cm, with the mirrored centre door and the drawers set into the 45cm section.
-
271cm – 6 doors. Three compartments of 90cm, with two mirrored centre doors and the drawers in the 90cm centre.
Every compartment has a storage shelf and a hanging rail. Both can be individually positioned and adjusted in height, so the balance between hanging and folded storage is yours to set rather than the factory's – raise the shelf for full-length coats and dresses, or lower it for more folded storage. The shelves take up to 10kg each and the rails up to 40kg.
At 210cm high and 54cm deep, Velora fits a standard modern bedroom without needing a specialist ceiling height, and the 136cm model in particular is a genuinely compact option for a smaller room – a size most ranges skip entirely.
Before You Order
Velora needs approximately 25cm of clearance to the left, to the right and above the wardrobe for installation. This is more than some wardrobes require, because the Rauch Blue fittings sit externally – so the space genuinely has to be there. Measure the full run of wall and the ceiling height before ordering, including skirting boards, radiators, light fittings and any point where the wall is not perfectly square.
Velora sits in the Rauch Blue range: functional, well-designed furniture made in Germany, combining reliable quality with strong value for money. It is 100% Made in Germany and carries both the Blue Angel and the Golden M ecolabels – Blue Angel being an independently verified low-emission certification, which is worth having on a large piece of furniture in a room you sleep in.
The same wardrobe is also produced in Champagne, a soft warm neutral that gives the arched mirrors a gentler frame than white does.
Matching bedroom furniture is available from the collection: a 3 drawer bedside table (40 × 61 × 42cm), a 4 drawer narrow chest (40 × 81 × 42cm), a 4 drawer wide chest (80 × 81 × 42cm), and a 2 door 4 drawer chest (120 × 81 × 42cm).

FAQs
Are the doors fully mirrored?
No – and that is the point of the design. Each mirrored door carries a tall oval mirror with an arched top, inset into the door with the white finish framing it on all sides. It is a softer, more decorative treatment than a flat mirrored panel, and it gives the front a shape a full mirror could not.
Which doors are mirrored?
The centre door on the 136cm and 226cm models, and the two centre doors on the 181cm and 271cm models. The outer doors are plain.
Where are the drawers?
Directly beneath the mirrored doors, built into the carcase. On the 136cm, 181cm and 271cm models they sit within a 90cm compartment; on the 226cm they sit within the narrower 45cm centre section, so the drawers on that width are correspondingly narrower.
Which width should I choose?
136cm is a genuinely compact option for a smaller bedroom, with two compartments. 181cm and 226cm both give three compartments in different arrangements. 271cm gives three equal 90cm compartments, which suits two people sharing. Every width has the same mirrors, drawers and fittings.
What is inside the wardrobe?
Each compartment has one storage shelf and one hanging rail. Both can be individually positioned and adjusted in height, so the layout can be set for full-length garments or for more folded storage.
How much weight will the shelves and rails hold?
Each shelf takes up to 10kg and each clothes rail up to 40kg.
How much space do I need to install it?
Approximately 25cm of additional space to the left, to the right and above the wardrobe. This is more than some wardrobes require, because the Rauch Blue fittings sit externally – so the space genuinely has to be available. Measure the full run of wall and the ceiling height before ordering.
What colour are the handles?
Slim black bars with rounded ends, echoing the curve of the arched mirrors – vertical on the doors and horizontal on the drawers.
What is the Rauch Blue range?
Rauch's value line: functional, well-designed furniture made in Germany, combining reliable quality with strong value for money. It carries the same Blue Angel and Golden M ecolabels as the rest of the brand.
Is it available in another colour?
Yes. The same wardrobe is produced in Champagne, which gives the arched mirrors a warmer, gentler frame.
Is there matching bedroom furniture?
Yes. The Velora collection includes a 3 drawer bedside table, a 4 drawer narrow chest, a 4 drawer wide chest, and a 2 door 4 drawer chest.
Can I cancel or change my order?
No. This wardrobe is made to order by Rauch to your selected specification, so once the order has been processed it cannot be cancelled or amended. Please check your measurements and selected width carefully before ordering.
How do I look after the surfaces?
The surfaces are easy to maintain and should be cleaned with a dry cloth only.
