I translated "borchia" as a "stud".
What is the English for "tassel" (here)? A "gusset"?

Hi Natalia,
I think I'd just use "mounting: wall plug and screw". As I understand it, it's a fixture on the back of pieces of lacquered glass to fix them to the walls. Whether this is mirrored or decorative I don't know from the little context.
But it is talking about holes on the back for mounting with wall plugs and screws as far as I can understand. The wall plugs go in the wall and I imagine the borchia (screws) fit/hook into the holes on the back after being screwed into the wall plugs in the wall.
