FAQs

Overmantel mirrors are traditionally designed to hang specifically above a fireplace mantelpiece, featuring horizontal proportions or architectural detailing that complements the hearth.

Authentic period pieces typically feature hand-carved wooden frames finished with gesso and gold leaf, housing silvered sheet glass plates secured within wooden backboards.

Authenticity is assessed by examining the plate glass for foxing and imperfections, inspecting the construction of the wooden frame joints, and checking for hand-applied gilding over gesso.

Positioning the mirror above a contemporary fireplace or mounting it on a plain painted wall creates a striking focal point by contrasting historical craftsmanship with modern minimalism.

Dust the frame gently with a soft, dry brush and avoid using chemical cleaning agents or water on gilded surfaces to prevent stripping the delicate metallic finish.
