FAQs

Georgian mirrors from the 18th century are characterised by symmetrical proportions, classical motifs, and fine cabinet-making techniques using imported timbers such as mahogany.

These pieces typically feature solid timber frames with veneer accents, hand-cut dovetail joints on drawers, brass hardware, and original mercury-backed or early silvered glass plates.

Authenticity is indicated by old secondary woods like pine or oak, hand-bevelled glass with subtle distortions, hand-cut joinery, and natural patina consistent with age and wear.

Placing an antique mirror on a modern sideboard or minimalist desk creates a sophisticated juxtaposition, reflecting light and adding historical texture to the space.

Keep the mirror away from direct sunlight and high humidity. Clean the timber with microfibre cloths and appropriate wax, and avoid spraying glass cleaner directly onto the mirror plate to protect the historic backing.
