A cushion mirror, or miroir coussin, is a style developed in the 17th century and widely produced throughout the 19th century in France. It features a central mirror plate surrounded by angled, secondary mirror border plates that resemble the sloped sides of a cushion, usually framed in embossed sheet brass.

These mirrors typically feature a hand-carved wooden core clad in thin repousse or stamped sheet brass. The reflective elements consist of a bevelled central glass plate flanked by angled border glass segments.

Authentic period pieces feature hand-tacked brass cladding over a solid pine or oak backing structure, natural oxidisation on the unpolished metal, and original mercury or silvered bevelled glass with subtle foxing.

A brass cushion mirror creates a focal point when placed above a fireplace mantelpiece, in a narrow hallway, or positioned above a contemporary sideboard to contrast warm metallic texture against neutral paint finishes.

Clean the brass cladding gently with a dry microfiber cloth to preserve the natural patina, avoiding abrasive chemical polishes. Clean the glass with a mild, alcohol-free spray applied directly to a cloth rather than sprayed onto the frame.
