FAQs

Gilt mirrors gained prominence during the Baroque and Rococo periods in Europe, where master craftsmen used gold leaf to highlight intricate carved wooden frames, signifying wealth and status.

Authentic pieces are typically constructed from hand-carved wood, such as pine or gesso-coated hardwoods, finished with application of fine gold leaf or gilt paint over a preparation layer.

Authentication involves examining the backing boards, joint construction, hand-carved detailing, and natural ageing characteristics of the metal leaf and glass plate, such as foxing or minor oxidisation.

An ornate gilt mirror can be mounted above a minimalist fireplace mantel or clean-lined console table to create a striking focal point through the juxtaposition of eras.

Dust gently with a soft, dry brush and avoid chemical cleaners or moisture, as water and solvents can damage delicate leafing and historical finishes.
