One of the clip thingies that holds my bathroom mirror up broke, and I'd like to replace it.

It's the kind that works with a hole drilled through the mirror, though, not the clips, which are all I can find online.

Is there a specific name for this piece of hardware I can use to find it?

    More of a fancy holder/washer than a clip. Made to spread the pressure of the screw over a wider area.

    Excellent picture. I have exactly the same things on my hall bathroom mirror. (But not for sale...) Commented Nov 22, 2022 at 22:14

I have these (or very, very similar) on my hall bathroom mirror, probably ~ 65 years old. But it looks like they still make them, or something very similar, called a Star Mirror Rosette:

This example is from Amazon in a large package (16!). Home Depot (and probably many other hardware and big box stores) have them in single packs for a couple dollars. Of course, most people probably need 4 - because if you just get 1 then it probably won't match the other 3. Most people probably don't need 16 - unless they are replacing mirrors in 4 bathrooms at once. So shop wherever it works best for you.

  • That is a 65 years old design. try something more modern.

  • @Ruskes I am interested if you know how to search for it -- I don't. :-) Commented Nov 23, 2022 at 0:06
