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

Originating in late seventeenth-century England, William and Mary cushion frame mirrors are characterised by a convex, pillow-like moulding around the frame. They frequently incorporate rich timber veneers, such as figure-walnut, accentuated by dark ebonised mouldings and borders.

These mirrors were typically constructed with a pine carcass faced in walnut or olive wood veneers, accompanied by ebonised wooden accents. The glass plates were hand-blown and silvered using mercury process techniques.

Authentic period mirrors exhibit hand-sawn veneers with slight irregularities, hand-forged hanging fixtures, original split-pine backboards, and natural foxing or oxidisation on the mercury glass plate.

Positioning a cushion mirror above a hall console, fireplace mantel, or sideboard creates architectural contrast against contemporary wall colours while reflecting ambient light into the space.

Dust the frame regularly with a dry, soft microfibre cloth and apply a clear beeswax polish sparingly along the grain. Avoid chemical cleaners or spraying liquids directly onto the foxed glass surface.
