The George II period spans from 1727 to 1760, characterised by a transition from heavy walnut designs influenced by the Baroque era to lighter, more ornate elements precursors to the Rococo style.

These mirrors typically featured native or imported timber such as walnut, often utilised as veneers with crossbanding, alongside gilded gesso slip inner mouldings and hand-silvered glass plates.

Authentic period pieces display period construction techniques such as hand-cut dovetails, pine or oak secondary backing boards, oxidised mirror plates with slight foxing, and old patination on the timber surface.

Positioning the mirror above a modern minimalist console table or a fireplace mantel creates a striking focal point, allowing the historic textures to contrast with clean, contemporary lines.

Maintain the timber by keeping it away from direct sunlight and fluctuating humidity sources, applying occasional microcrystalline wax, and cleaning the glass with a lint-free cloth without spraying liquid directly onto the frame.
