A cheval mirror is a freestanding, full-length mirror suspended on a frame with pivots, allowing it to tilt. They originated in France during the late 18th century and became immensely popular in Britain throughout the Regency and Victorian eras.

Traditional pieces are typically constructed from dense hardwoods like mahogany, walnut, or rosewood, often featuring hand-carved details, brass pivot pins, and original mercury or early silvered glass plates backed with wooden panels.

Authentic pieces often exhibit hand-cut screws, foxing or oxidisation in the mirror glass, secondary woods in the framing structure, and traditional joinery such as dovetailing on any base compartments or drawers.

Positioning a large antique mirror in a modern room creates a striking focal point while reflecting natural light to enhance spatial depth, pairing effectively with minimalist decor to provide a deliberate contrast of periods.

Dust the wooden frame regularly with a dry microfibre cloth and apply a quality beeswax periodically to nourish the grain, while cleaning the glass using a lint-free cloth and a mild ammonia-free glass cleaner sprayed onto the cloth rather than directly onto the mirror.
