This large Victorian wall mirror follows the Louis Philippe style with rounded upper corners and a gold-coloured gilded gesso frame. It is built from giltwood, glass and gesso, showing a beaded inner moulding and aged gilding with an original foxed mirror plate that has characteristic dark spots and distress marks. The piece measures 202 cm high, 132 cm wide, and 7 cm deep. Positioned in a French chateau style interior, the mirror is designed for placement above the mantel in a living room, dining space, or bedroom. It hangs securely on a wall to reflect light and add character to traditional or eclectic decorative schemes.

Dust the frame gently using a soft, dry camel-hair brush, avoiding water, chemical cleaners, or friction that can wear down delicate gold leaf layers.

These versatile mirrors are commonly mounted above a mantelpiece or fireplace alcove, positioned over a dining room sideboard, or leaned vertically against a wall in an entryway.

Authentic pieces show signs of age such as silver oxidisation or foxing on the glass, visible red bole underneath worn gold leaf, and hand-planked backboards attached with historic fittings.

Frames were traditionally constructed from pine or lime wood cores, covered in gesso plaster, layered with red bole clay, and gilded with gold leaf around silvered or mercury glass plates.

Named after the French king who reigned from 1830 to 1848, Louis Philippe mirrors are defined by rounded upper corners, flat bottom corners, and simple curved frames finished in gold leaf or dark lacquer.
