FAQs

Originating in 18th-century France, a trumeau mirror is a architectural wall mirror featuring a decorative painted canvas or carved wooden relief panel positioned directly above the reflective glass, designed to fit into wall panelling.

These mirrors were constructed using hand-carved softwoods or hardwoods, finished with gesso, oil pigments, and water gilding using gold leaf. The decorative upper sections typically featured oil paintings on canvas or wood panels.

Authentic period examples feature hand-cut joinery, hand-carved wood moulding details, natural oxidisation or foxing on the glass silvering, red bole showing through worn gold leaf gilding, and period-appropriate canvas weave or wooden backing boards.

A trumeau mirror is placed above a fireplace mantelpiece, dining room sideboard, or entryway console table to provide vertical height, reflect natural light, and introduce classic French architectural structure.

Dust the frame regularly with a dry soft brush or microfibre cloth. Avoid applying commercial glass cleaners directly to the frame or near gilded edges, and maintain stable indoor humidity to prevent wood warping and paint cracking.
