FAQs

Art Deco design, prominent from the 1920s to the 1930s, is characterised by geometric symmetry, stylised motifs, and a focus on luxury, often utilising gilded finishes and sunburst patterns to create dramatic focal points.

These pieces typically feature carved wood or plaster frames finished with applied gold leaf or gilt, surrounding a central bevelled or flat mirror plate backed with traditional protective coatings.

Authentic pieces generally exhibit genuine age-related wear such as foxing on the mirror glass, hand-carving inconsistencies, and natural oxidisation or craquelure within the gilt or plaster finish.

Such a mirror serves effectively as a statement wall centrepiece above a mantelpiece or sideboard, contrasting sharply against minimalist backdrops to introduce metallic warmth and texture.

Dust gently with a soft, dry feather duster and avoid applying water or chemical cleaning agents directly to the fragile gilt surface or the edges of the antique mirror glass.
