The Sustainable Choice

Antiques are the ultimate green purchase. By choosing historical pieces over newly manufactured goods, you completely eliminate the carbon footprint of modern mass production while preserving exceptional, timeless craftsmanship.

FAQs

Octagonal wall mirrors gained popularity during the late 19th and early 20th centuries, reflecting a shift towards geometric symmetry in domestic interiors. These pieces frequently feature dark hardwoods such as mahogany or walnut, embellished with hand-carved outer mouldings and stepped inner profiles.

Framed in solid hardwoods like mahogany, walnut, or oak, these mirrors typically employ mitred corner joints reinforced with wooden splines or dowels. The frame mouldings often incorporate repeating carved motifs housing flat or bevelled mirror glass.

Authentic period examples feature original wood backing boards, hand-carved detailing along the frame moulding, and subtle patination on the timber. Inspection of the mirror plate may reveal mild silvering degradation or oxidation consistent with age, alongside hand-finished joinery on the reverse.

A large geometric wooden mirror creates a focal point when positioned above a fireplace mantelpiece, console table, or sideboard. The warm timber tone contrasts effectively against neutral painted walls, contemporary brass lighting, or modern artwork.

Dust the timber frame regularly using a dry microfibre cloth, applying beeswax sparingly once a year to preserve the wood finish. Clean the mirror plate by spraying glass cleaner directly onto a cloth rather than the glass to prevent moisture from seeping into the frame joinery.
