A cheval mirror is a freestanding, full-length mirror suspended on a pivot frame, allowing it to tilt. The design gained widespread popularity during the late 18th and 19th centuries in England and France as bedrooms transitioned from small washstand mirrors to full-length dressing glasses.

These mirrors were traditionally crafted from solid hardwoods like mahogany, rosewood, or walnut, often featuring hand-turned upright supports, scroll feet, and brass pivot hardware. The glass plates were historically silvered using mercury or early chemical silvering techniques, set within mortise and tenon frames.

Authentic pieces typically exhibit hand-cut joints, original hand-blown or early float glass with minor foxing or oxidisation, heavy secondary woods like pine or oak in the base construction, and hand-forged or cast brass pivot screws rather than modern machine-threaded fittings.

An antique wooden mirror provides functional reflection and vertical warmth in a modern setting. Placing it in a bedroom or dressing room juxtaposes rich period timber against minimalist white walls or contemporary textiles, creating a balanced focal point.

Maintain antique mirrors by keeping them out of direct sunlight to prevent timber fading and varnish degradation. Clean the glass sparingly using a soft microfiber cloth and a mild, ammonia-free glass cleaner sprayed onto the cloth rather than directly onto the glass to avoid seepage behind the silvering.
