FAQs

Edwardian design, spanning from 1901 to 1910, often lighter in feel than Victorian pieces, frequently incorporated neoclassical motifs, floral painting, and mahogany or walnut frames inspired by earlier Georgian and Sheraton revivals.

These pieces typically utilised solid or veneered hardwoods such as mahogany, walnut, or satinwood, often featuring hand-bevelled glass plates, gesso details, and hand-painted reverse-glass panels or wooden crests.

Authentic items feature period construction markers such as old wood backing boards, hand-cut screws, oxidisation and foxing on the original mercury or silvered mirror plate, and traditional joinery techniques.

Positioning the piece above a fireplace mantel or mounting it on a plain neutral wall creates a striking focal point, contrasting historical craftsmanship with contemporary minimalist surroundings.

Dust the wooden frame regularly with a dry cloth and clean the glass using a microfiber cloth dampened slightly with distilled water, avoiding harsh chemical cleaners that can damage the aged silvering or wooden finish.
