A cushion mirror features a convex or sloping outer frame that creates a dimensional, pillowed effect, popularised during the 17th century and revived in later historicist design movements.

These pieces are typically constructed from hand-carved wood, composition ornaments, and gesso, finished with layers of gold leaf or gilt paint over a prepared base.

Authenticity is assessed by examining the ageing of the mirror plate, such as foxing and silvering degradation, alongside hand-carved construction details, old joinery, and patination on the gilding.

Pairing an ornate historic mirror with minimalist furnishings creates a striking visual contrast, using the piece to amplify natural light and add vertical focal weight to a room.

Gilt surfaces require delicate dusting with a soft, dry microfibre cloth, avoiding all liquid cleaners, abrasive chemicals, and direct sunlight to prevent cracking and flaking of the gold leaf.
