FAQs

Overmantel mirrors gained immense popularity during the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, specifically designed to be hung above a fireplace mantel to reflect candlelight and natural light around the room.

These pieces typically feature a wooden construction, often pine or gesso-covered softwood, finished with applied gold leaf or gilding, and incorporate hand-silvered glass plates.

Authentic pieces often show signs of age such as foxing on the mirror plate, hand-cut joinery, traditional gesso application, and subtle oxidisation of the gilt surface.

An ornate mirror serves as a dramatic focal point; it can be mounted above a modern fireplace to create a striking contrast or placed against a neutral wall to amplify light and space.

Gilt surfaces are extremely delicate and should only be dusted gently with a soft, dry feather duster, avoiding any moisture, abrasive cloths, or chemical cleaning solutions.
