Have you seen this mirror?

It may be stolen property.

Café owner Gordon Ling told Mothership that an unknown visitor had stolen the piece of decoration from the storefront of his café, The Coffee Code, in the early hours of Jun. 9.

The eatery is located along Neil Road and opened in September 2023.

Surveillance footage

Surveillance footage shared by Ling showed an unknown woman approaching the café at 2:07am.

Dressed in long pants and accompanied by a second person, she walked up to the storefront, picked up the mirror, and jogged off.

She did not appear to take anything else.

Ling said that one of his staff members noticed the disappearance when opening the café later that morning.

He said: "I feel very shocked and upset. Why is the young lady doing this?"

He added that he had since made a police report.

In response to Mothership's queries, the police confirmed that a report was made and investigations are ongoing.

The missing mirror

The curve-edged mirror — which measures about half a metre in height — appears to be a popular photo prop.

Social media posts shared on Instagram reveal café visitors taking snapshots with and of the aesthetic decoration.

The café also posted an Instagram Story on Jun. 10 about the theft.

"When The Coffee Code's Mirror is too cute to resist, you can't help but steal it home," it deadpanned.

"Gonna miss you our little star."

Ling said he plans to replace the mirror, which was custom-made and has the café's name printed on it.

Hopefully, whoever took it is doing a whole lot of self-reflection.
