FAQs

Originating in France during the late 18th century, the cheval mirrornamed after the French word for horse due to its four-legged framewas designed as a full-length dressing glass for elite interiors.

Authentic period pieces typically feature solid hardwoods or veneers such as walnut, mahogany, or oak, constructed with traditional joinery and supported by a pivoting frame on a sturdy stand.

Authentication involves inspecting the glass for subtle imperfections, foxing, or beveling typical of historical manufacture, alongside examining the frame for period-appropriate joinery, timber shrinkage, and patina.

Positioning the piece in a bedroom or dressing area allows it to serve as a functional focal point, reflecting natural light and contrasting effectively against minimalist or contemporary decor.

Preservation requires avoiding direct sunlight to protect the wood and silvering, applying microcrystalline wax to the timber periodically, and cleaning the glass with a lint-free cloth and mild solution.
