Victorian mirrors often feature substantial proportions, classical moulding, and silvered or gilt finishes reflecting the eclectic revivals of the 19th century.

These frames were typically constructed from carved softwood or hardwood, finished with gesso and silver leaf, holding heavy plate glass with bevelled edges.

Authentic pieces often exhibit foxing or oxidisation within the mercury or silver backing, hand-planed timber backs, and subtle irregularities in the glass plate.

Leaning a large mirror against a plain wall creates a sense of space and light, contrasting historical craftsmanship with contemporary minimalist surroundings.

Dust gently with a soft, dry microfibre cloth and avoid spraying liquids directly onto the glass or frame to prevent moisture seepage behind the silvering.
