The George II style, spanning from the 1720s to the 1760s, is characterised by architectural proportions, heavy carved ornamentation, and a transition from walnut to dense, dark mahogany as the preferred timber.

Authentic period mirrors typically feature solid hardwood frames such as mahogany or walnut, often embellished with gilt wood, carved shell motifs, and hand-silvered glass plates held by wooden backboards.

Authenticity is assessed by examining the joinery, the presence of hand-bevelling or foxing on the glass plate, tool marks on the timber, and the patina accumulated on the wooden frame over decades.

Pairing traditional carved wood mirrors with modern minimalist furniture creates a balanced contrast, while hanging them above console tables or fireplaces adds vertical emphasis and reflects natural light.

Maintain the timber with microcrystalline wax and clean the mirror glass using a soft, lint-free cloth dampened with distilled water, avoiding harsh chemicals that could damage the antique frame or silvering.
