FAQs

Ebonisation is a chemical process or staining technique used to darken timber, typically fruitwood or oak, to imitate expensive ebony. Popularised during various historical revivals and the Art Deco period, this finish provided a sleek, dark aesthetic prized for its dramatic contrast and formal elegance.

These pieces typically feature solid timber frames, often constructed with mortise and tenon joints to support heavy glass plates. The glass was traditionally silvered using mercury or chemical solutions, and the frames were finished with multiple coats of dark stain or lacquer before being polished.

Authenticity is assessed through examination of the mirror plate, which may show age-related foxing, oxidisation, or minor distortions. The timber frame should display period-appropriate joinery, hand-mixed surface finishes, and fixings consistent with early twentieth-century manufacturing techniques.

Positioning a large mirror directly on the floor leaning against a wall creates a sense of expanded space and brings architectural weight to a room. It pairs effectively with minimalist, industrial, or maximalist schemes, acting as a functional focal point that reflects natural light.

Maintenance requires avoiding direct sunlight and excessive moisture to protect the silver backing and wooden frame. Cleaning should be done sparingly using a dry or barely damp microfiber cloth, avoiding harsh chemical ammonia-based sprays that can damage the antique glass and finish.
