FAQs

Art Nouveau mirrors are characterised by organic, asymmetrical lines, flowing floral motifs, and natural forms inspired by plant stems and botanical shapes, prominent between 1890 and 1910.

Authentic pieces typically feature hand-carved wooden frames, often gessoed and gilded with gold leaf, holding original silvered or mercury glass plates secured with traditional wooden backing boards and joinery.

Authentication involves examining the silvering on the glass for natural foxing and oxidation, inspecting the frame for hand-carved tool marks rather than modern mouldings, and checking for period-appropriate fixings and backboards.

Position the mirror as a focal point in a minimalist or contemporary space to create contrast, using its organic lines to soften clean architectural lines and bounce natural light around the room.

Preserve the piece by keeping it away from direct sunlight and high humidity, dusting gently with a dry microfibre cloth, and avoiding chemical cleaners on both the fragile gilt surface and the aged glass.
