A Glasgow School wall mirror of oval form follows the Arts and Crafts style of the period around 1900. Constructed from brass, wood, glass, and enamel, the warm brass piece exhibits a heavily hammered finish across the broad frame. Relief-moulded repousse peacocks flank the central rectangular mirror plate, set amidst embossed foliate detailing. Visible decorative hardware includes riveted strapwork at the top and bottom borders, alongside a green enamel heart-shaped cabochon mounted centrally on the lower edge. Practical dimensions measure 37 cm high, 63 cm wide, and 2.2 cm deep. Suitable for contemporary interiors, this wall mirror hangs above the mantel in a living room, hallway, or study, adding decorative character and reflective light to the space.

The Glasgow Style emerged in the late 19th century, blending Arts and Crafts principles with Art Nouveau linear forms. Mirrors from this movement frequently feature hand-beaten repousse brass, stylized fauna motifs such as peacocks, and integrated enamel cabochons.

Craftsmen shaped sheet brass from the reverse side using hammers and punches to create raised relief designs, a technique known as repousse. These brass panels were subsequently fitted over a wooden armature and held with riveted straps.

Authentic pieces exhibit hand-chased hammering, rivet construction, and period-appropriate oxidation across the brass surface. Look for design hallmarks such as elongated peacocks, heart-shaped cut-outs, strapwork, and original enamel roundels.

Position the mirror above a minimalist fireplace mantel or hallway console table to establish a focal point. Contrast the warm metallic brass against dark paint tones or plain plaster walls to highlight the repousse relief.

Dust regularly with a dry microfibre cloth and avoid abrasive polishes that strip the historical aged patina. Application of a thin layer of microcrystalline wax can seal the metal surface and protect enamel cabochons.
