The Sustainable Choice

Antiques are the ultimate green purchase. By choosing historical pieces over newly manufactured goods, you completely eliminate the carbon footprint of modern mass production while preserving exceptional, timeless craftsmanship.

FAQs

Gilt oval mirrors feature a curved wooden or gesso frame finished with gold leaf or metallic gilding, popularised in European interiors during the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries.

Traditional gilt frames were typically crafted from carved timber coated with layers of gesso clay before thin sheets of gold leaf were applied and burnished.

Authentic pieces often show subtle wear to the gilding revealing the underlying red or yellow bole clay, along with period-appropriate backboards and minor oxidisation on the mirror glass.

Position an oval mirror above a hallway console table or fireplace mantelpiece to draw light, introduce curved geometry, and contrast against contemporary linear architecture.

Dust the frame gently with a dry, soft-bristled brush, avoiding water or chemical cleaning agents that can dissolve the delicate gold leaf and compromise the gesso surface.
