FAQs

Georgian mirrors from the late 18th and early 19th centuries often feature symmetrical proportions, classical motifs, and elaborate plasterwork over a wooden base.

These pieces typically consist of a carved wooden substrate covered in gessoa mixture of plaster and binderwhich was then water-gilded or oil-gilded with gold leaf.

Authenticity is indicated by hand-carved details, foxing or oxidisation on the original mercury or silvered glass plate, and period-appropriate pine backing boards with hand-cut screws or nails.

Pairing an ornate metallic piece with clean-lined contemporary furniture creates a striking focal point and adds a layer of historic contrast to a minimalist room.

Dust gently with a dry, soft microfibre cloth and avoid all liquid cleaners, chemical solvents, or abrasive materials to protect the delicate metallic leaf.
