FAQs

The Louis Philippe style emerged in France during the reign of King Louis-Philippe (18301848), characterised by understated elegance, clean lines, rounded upper corners, and a reduction in excessive ornamentation compared to earlier periods.

Authentic period pieces are typically constructed from a wooden core, often pine or gesso-covered wood, finished with silver leaf or silver gilt application, housing original mercury or early silvered sheet glass.

Authenticity is determined by examining the backboards for age-appropriate construction, inspecting the glass for foxing, oxidisation, and hand-beveled edges, and verifying the traditional application of metal leaf over gesso.

Interior designers frequently lean these large-scale pieces directly against a living room or bedroom wall to create a sense of height and reflect natural light, balancing traditional craftsmanship with modern minimalist spaces.

Silver gilt surfaces should be dusted gently with a soft, dry microfibre cloth, avoiding all liquid cleaners, abrasive chemicals, and direct sunlight to prevent tarnishing or degradation of the metallic leaf.
