ABSTRACT:
A mirror assembly comprising a glass substrate, a low transmissivity reflecting coating on the substrate and an opacifying member which is assembled adjacent to the glass substrate for a front surface mirror or the reflecting coating for a back surface mirror. The present invention also provides a method of producing a mirror assembly comprising depositing onto a hot ribbon of glass during the production process a low transmissivity reflecting coating and assembling an opacifying member adjacent to the glass substrate or the reflecting coating of the mirror so formed.
