Hi, Good question. If you have room on either side of the mirror sconces always look fabulous! You were not specific (other then low cement slab ceiling) about mirror size or wall width you are working with. Even if you have wall to wall mirror, your sconces can be added on top of the mirror. However, this needs to be planned prior to the mirror being installed. If this is not possible for your space, my other suggestion would be a light fixture over the mirror.
