Yeah, I agree but it's the visible spectrum of light that we talking of.. that's what we see as a reflection. I'll have to look at the "thinness" aspect of it as John Rennie stated in his answer.

The second reason makes a lot more sense. I'll have to look at this. I have certain questions I'll have to ask some people on Electronics SE. I'll get back if I find something worth sharing. Such a pleasure to be talking to an experienced person.

Hi, your argument is not correct. Indium oxide has 10^-4 ohm m resistivity but Silicon Carbide (SiC) has a resistivity of 10^-2 ohm m, and there are mirrors made of it. indiascience.in/videos/…

Hi, Thanks for answering.. but this doesn't answer my question. Irregularity of surface is not in the scope of the question. And I don't think lattice structure plays an important role for the most part of it. Mostly reflections happen at the surface where electrons interact. And we've seen normal glasses with amorphous structure reflect partially too. I'm asking why doesn't a conductive glass (not normal glass) show the same properties to naked eyes as of metal if they both have free electrons. Does that mean our theory, "reflection happens due to interaction of electrons", is wrong?

@FilipMilovanović Sure! Thanks! I will be looking deeper into this in future. I will hit you up if I find anything relevant :)

@FilipMilovanović Yes your argument about the diffused light is correct but I'm countering it with the fact that silver things don't turn white when their surface get rough. What if there's another component of light we are missing? Because as mysterious as light is.. surety is far

@FilipMilovanović YES! you are exactly right. The mirror like appearance could be because of the transparent coating. It is in fact the case is almost every white thing. I couldn't find anything white which reflects except for enamel of teeth and opal stone (not completely reflective yet perceptible enough) So I'm confused.. does it matter if it is an element or molecule or as you stated anisotropic (opal stone)? I want to believe that it is what you and others are saying but something in me says there's more

(+1) That's a pretty convincing theory. But I will wait for some more answers because i think it's more deeper than this.

@StevanV.Saban Thanks for replying. I don't think that's what happens. Because as it is stated "white reflects all the visible light" and so does a polished metal. Except if there is some other component of light we are missing?

@SolomonSlow Yes i partly agree but if you look at the other side of the coin.. howsoever the texture of the metal is it doesn't look like white (it poorly reflects the reflection of objects in front of it)

(+1) That is, but not always true. Can you please take a look at physics.stackexchange.com/questions/761359/…

@Codename47 Thanks for replying. I've added the images. I'm talking of the appearance in general. Why does the mirror looks so natural but not a white surface if they do something very similar (reflect light)
