Birds-eye maple is a figure in maple wood that gives the appearance of small, swirling eyes disrupting the grain. It gained immense popularity during the Victorian and Edwardian eras, as well as the Art Deco period, for high-end cabinetry and veneer work.

Traditional wooden mirrors typically feature a solid wood or softwood carcass applied with a decorative wood veneer, such as maple or walnut. Joints are often mitred at the corners, and the reverse side usually consists of a tongue-and-groove pine or cedar backboard supporting the glass.

Authentic pieces exhibit natural ageing characteristics, including micro-shrinkage in the veneer, hand-bevelled or mercury-silvered glass with minor oxidisation spots, and old hand-cut or early machine-cut screws on the backing boards.

An antique wooden mirror adds warmth and tactile grain to minimalist or modern spaces. Hanging it above a minimalist console table or contrasting it against a stark white wall creates a striking focal point that balances historic character with clean interior lines.

Maintain antique frames by keeping them out of direct sunlight and away from rapid humidity fluctuations to prevent veneer cracking. Dust regularly with a dry, soft microfibre cloth and avoid using chemical polishes or water directly on the wood or silvered glass.
