  • Period19th century
  • StyleVictorian

  • SizeH 158 cm (62 in)

Victorian dressing mirrors evolved significantly during the 19th century, transitioning from simple box designs to elaborate, freestanding telescopic stands incorporating marble tops and brass candle sconces for personal grooming.

These pieces typically utilised dense hardwoods such as mahogany and walnut, often paired with inset marble surfaces, brass mechanical fittings, and mercury-silvered glass plates.

Authenticity is indicated by hand-cut joinery, original screw mechanisms, oxidized brass patina, subtle imperfections in the hand-beveled glass, and the natural ageing of the timber.

Place the mirror against a neutral wall in a bedroom or hallway to create a striking focal point, blending the rich dark wood tones with contemporary minimalist furnishings for contrast.

Clean the timber using specialist wax polish sparingly, avoid abrasive cleaners on the marble top, and keep the glass moisture-free by dusting gently with a microfibre cloth.
