FAQs

The Louis XV style, prevalent during the 18th century, is characterised by asymmetrical curves, naturalistic motifs such as foliage and shells, and an emphasis on grace and fluidity rather than rigid symmetry.

These mirrors are typically constructed from carved wood, such as pine or oak, finished with gesso and gold leaf applied through traditional water gilding or oil gilding techniques.

Authentic pieces often exhibit signs of age in the gilding, such as oxidisation and craquelure, hand-carved details with minor irregularities, and older mirror plates featuring bevelled edges with mercury backing or subtle imperfections.

Pairing an ornate gold mirror with minimalist furnishings creates a striking contrast that highlights the craftsmanship of the piece while keeping the overall room feeling contemporary and balanced.

Gilded frames should be dusted gently with a soft, dry brush. Moisture and chemical cleaners must be avoided, as they can strip or damage the delicate gold leaf layer.
