Metallic Grey is a deep graphite — considerably closer to black than to silver, and in most rooms it reads as a near-black. If you have been searching for a dark or black mirrored sliding wardrobe, this is the colourway.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe mirror is a full-height panel set into one of the two sliding doors, rather than a whole door given over to mirror, with the graphite finish running alongside it. On a dark colour that framing produces the strongest contrast in the range: a bright reflective strip against a near-black front, where the dark surround recedes and lets the mirror lead.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eIt is also the colourway where the mirror does the most practical work. Graphite absorbs a good deal of light across a wide sliding front, and the mirror gives some of it back — so if you liked the idea of a dark wardrobe but worried it would close the room in, this is the version that answers that. It still needs a room with reasonable light and pale walls to look its best, but the mirror buys you more room than a plain dark front would.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eBecause the doors slide, the mirror moves across the front as you use the wardrobe. And with nothing swinging out into the room, there is no risk of a mirrored door catching on furniture — a real consideration in a bedroom, and one of the reasons a mirrored sliding wardrobe is safer than a hinged one.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe slim aluminium handles catch the light against the dark front, and together with the mirror they are the only things on the wardrobe that are not graphite — which is exactly enough.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eOne honest note: dark finishes show fingerprints and dust more readily than pale ones. A dry cloth is all it needs, but the graphite sections will want attention more often than white or champagne would.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThree Widths\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAll three sizes have two sliding doors; what changes is the width and how the interior is divided behind them.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e175cm\u003c\/strong\u003e gives two compartments of 87.5cm — the right proportion for a standard double bedroom, and the most compact of the three. At this width the dark finish reads as an accent rather than a statement, so it works in rooms where the wider versions would be too much.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e218cm\u003c\/strong\u003e opens the two compartments out to 109cm each. That is unusually generous: wide enough for a full season's coats or a long run of dresses in one section, without the rail being divided.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e261cm\u003c\/strong\u003e divides into three compartments of 87.5cm behind the two doors. For two people sharing this is the one to have — a compartment each with a third for bedding, luggage or out-of-season clothing. In Metallic Grey it is also the most dramatic, and the width where the mirror panel matters most.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eEvery compartment, at every width, has a height-adjustable shelf and a hanging rail, so the balance between hanging and folded storage is yours to set rather than the factory's.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAt 210cm high and 59cm deep, Aurelia fits a standard modern bedroom without needing a specialist ceiling height, and the depth means garments hang square on the rail rather than pressing against the sliding doors.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGerman Build at a Sensible Price\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAurelia sits in the \u003cstrong\u003eRauch Blue\u003c\/strong\u003e range – Rauch's value line, where the brief is reliable quality and good value rather than premium specification. What it is not is a budget wardrobe dressed up: it is 100% Made in Germany and carries both the \u003cstrong\u003eBlue Angel\u003c\/strong\u003e and the \u003cstrong\u003eGolden M\u003c\/strong\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eBlue Angel is an independently verified low-emission certification, which is worth having on a large piece of furniture in a room you sleep in. The Golden M is Germany's independent furniture quality mark. Both are external certifications rather than the manufacturer's own claims, and most wardrobes at this price carry neither.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOther Options\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eIf you would prefer no mirror at all, Aurelia is also produced as a \u003ca href=\"\/products\/rauch-aurelia-metallic-grey-sliding-door-wardrobe\"\u003eplain metallic grey sliding wardrobe\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe mirrored version is also made in \u003ca href=\"\/products\/rauch-aurelia-white-sliding-door-wardrobe-with-mirror\"\u003eWhite\u003c\/a\u003e, the brightest of the range, and \u003ca href=\"\/products\/rauch-aurelia-champagne-sliding-door-wardrobe-with-mirror\"\u003eChampagne\u003c\/a\u003e, a soft faintly golden neutral.
