Antique giltwood should be kept away from direct sunlight and moisture fluctuations, dusted gently with a soft dry brush, and never treated with modern chemical cleaning agents.

An ornate gilt mirror creates a striking focal point when contrasted against minimalist modern walls, or placed above a fireplace mantel to amplify natural light and add architectural interest.

Authenticity is determined by inspecting the hand-carved details, the presence of aged gesso with natural oxidisation, hand-bevelled mercury or early float glass, and historical construction techniques on the reverse timber panel.

Authentic period mirrors are typically constructed from carved wood, such as pine or oak, finished with layers of gesso and bole before being hand-gilded with gold leaf.

The Louis XV style, or Rococo, emerged in France during the 18th century, characterised by asymmetrical curves, natural motifs such as C-scrolls and foliage, and a lighter, more graceful aesthetic than its predecessor.
