A Mirror of Kalandra (often simply referred to as a Mirror) is a basic currency item that can be used to create a mirrored duplicate of any piece of non-unique equipment, non-corrupted item that is not itself a duplicate. The duplicated item is identical to the original, except it cannot be modified with currency items in any way, save for the use of a Reflective Oil on amulets. It is labeled as a mirrored item and its image is reversed. Like regular items, there is no restriction on duplicates being dropped, traded, or sold to vendors.

Mirrors are one of the rarest and most valuable items in Path of Exile, and attaining one either through a natural drop or through trading is considered a pinnacle achievement. This is partially signified through its use in the Path of Exile logo, which incorporates a mirror within its design.

Spending

Due to their extreme rarity, a Mirror of Kalandra is only used to duplicate the absolute best rare items available, as the mirror will be consumed on use. Players that own these top rare items will provide "Mirror service" to players looking to use their Mirrors. Usually, the Mirror is given to the Mirror service provider, the item is duplicated, and then the duplicate item is then traded back. This process typically includes a "Mirror fee", to be paid to the Mirror service provider, as well as some exchange of collateral, so that the original Mirror owner is insured against having their Mirror stolen.

Typically, players that find Mirrors will be unable to use them properly, both because they cannot afford mirror fees to duplicate top items, and also because they have little use for having a single item that is the absolute best of its kind. It is often more economical to trade away a Mirror of Kalandra in order to eventually obtain many very good items, rather than using it to obtain a single item that may only be marginally better.

Mirrors of Kalandra can also be used to purchase unique fishing rods from vendors. This is not recommended, as these can usually be purchased from other players for much lower prices.
