FAQs

Travelling mirrors were historically designed for military officers and wealthy travellers during the 18th and 19th centuries to allow for personal grooming while on the move, often featuring durable metals and folding mechanisms.

These pieces typically incorporate sterling silver or silver-plated frames, reflective glass plates with bevelled edges, and hinged metal struts or wooden protective cases.

Authenticity is assessed through hallmarks on the silver frame, the presence of historical wear on the mirror plate such as light foxing, and traditional construction methods like hand-soldering and mechanical hinges.

Positioning the mirror on a dressing table, mantelpiece, or bookshelf adds a reflective metallic accent that complements both traditional and contemporary interior schemes.

Maintain the piece by dusting the frame with a soft cloth, using dedicated silver polish cautiously around hallmarks, and cleaning the glass with a non-ammonia cleaner applied to a cloth rather than directly to the mirror.
