FAQs

Gilt mirrors feature a wooden frame coated in a thin layer of gold leaf or gold paint, a technique popular across various historical periods including the Regency, Victorian, and Edwardian eras.

Authentic period frames are typically constructed from carved wood, gesso, and composition (compo) ornamentation, finished with genuine gold leaf applied over a bole base.

Authenticity is assessed by examining the ageing of the gilt finish, the composition of the gesso, hand-carved details, and the characteristics of the mirror glass, such as foxing or distortion.

These pieces can be hung symmetrically above a sideboard or fireplace to reflect light, adding a layer of metallic warmth and classical proportion to contemporary spaces.

Gilt surfaces are extremely delicate and should be dusted gently with a soft, dry brush. Water, chemical cleaners, and abrasive cloths must be avoided to prevent damage to the fragile gold leaf.
