Every single antique dealer on our platform is individually approved by our internal team. We verify their professional trade history, ethical standards, and photographic quality to ensure a secure, high-standard buying environment.

FAQs

A pier mirror is a large wall mirror traditionally designed to be hung on the pier, or the section of wall between two windows, often placed above a matching pier table or console.

These pieces are typically constructed from carved timber, such as pine or hardwood, which is then layered with gesso, bole, and gold leaf or gilt paint, frequently accompanied by hand-painted reverse glass panels or eglomise.

Authenticity is assessed through the examination of the timber backing, the oxidisation and silvering of the mirror glass plates, hand-carved details, and the traditional application of gold leaf over gesso.

These mirrors can be hung above a minimalist modern console table or fireplace to create a striking focal point, balancing contemporary clean lines with historic ornamentation and reflective depth.

Preservation requires avoiding direct sunlight, maintaining stable indoor humidity levels to prevent timber warping or gesso cracking, and cleaning the glass with a dry or barely damp microfiber cloth while avoiding harsh chemicals on the gilt surface.
