Any smooth surface will reflect light. The better question is "How much light does each kind of smooth surface reflect?"

Light reflections off of a smooth surface are considered to be spectral. Light reflections off of rough surfaces are considered to be diffuse
piece of metal because most pieces have smooth surfaces so the light bounces off perfectly. but wood has a rough surface and wood also absorbs most of the light so it wouldn't reflect off.
Because it has a shiny & smooth surface which helps to reflect the light... Take an example of tree. A tree have a rough surface due to which light can be reflect. So All of this depends on the smoothness of surface.. :-)
a crystal
light is needed to reflect an image off a mirror...no light no reflection
