FAQs

Neoclassical mirrors draw inspiration from classical Greek and Roman art, featuring symmetrical proportions, urn motifs, swags, and delicate husks.

These mirrors are typically constructed from carved timber or composition gesso applied over a wooden base, finished with layers of gold leaf or gilt paint.

Authenticity is assessed by examining the hand-carved details, the shrinkage cracks in the gesso, the ageing characteristics of the silvering on the glass plate, and the construction of the wooden backing frame.

A giltwood mirror provides a striking focal point when hung above a mantelpiece or console table, contrasting traditional craftsmanship with clean, modern architectural lines.

Gilded surfaces are extremely fragile and should only be dusted lightly with a soft, dry brush; liquid cleaners, polishes, and microfiber cloths must be avoided to prevent stripping the gold leaf.
