Does a mirror have a color?

It is inevitable that all mirrors will have some color. I don't believe that we have found a way to produce a surface that is absolutely perfectly reflective, although we may have come close. If any light is absorbed and not reflected, this will cause a color cast, even if it is extremely slight. Glass also has color, even if it is too faint for humans to detect it.

What is the color of mirror?

A mirror has no color. A perfect mirror will reflect all light equally and spectrally. A spectral reflection is one where all light hitting the mirror from a single direction is reflected in a single direction as it leaves the surface.As mirrors are usually constructed behind a thickness of glass, the glass itself can sometimes absorb certain colors and so the mirror does not reflect all colors fully. Then it may appear that the mirror has a color.There is no specific color of mirror. A mirror is a silver plated surface covereg with plane glass, reflecting whatever color coming in the front of it.

Mirrors are generally only one color; glass. The frame around it can, however, play an important part in your decision to which mirror you should choose. If you have a white wall you may choose to have a black mirror in order to contrast the color and to differentiate the wall from the mirror.
