FAQs

Eighteenth-century Venetian mirrors are characterised by ornate carved frames, often featuring asymmetric scrolls, floral motifs, and gilded or polychrome finishes that reflect the grandeur of the Venetian Republic.

These pieces typically consist of hand-carved soft or hardwoods, built up with gesso and gold leaf or painted pigments, housing hand-blown mercury glass plates with bevelled edges.

Authenticity is assessed through examining the aged patination of the gesso, hand-tool marks on the timber, foxing and oxidisation on the mirror plate, and traditional joinery methods appropriate to the period.

An antique Venetian mirror functions effectively as a focal point when hung against minimalist neutral walls, contrasting historic craftsmanship with contemporary clean lines.

Preservation requires avoiding direct sunlight, maintaining stable relative humidity to prevent wood warping, and cleaning the glass gently with a dry or barely damp microfiber cloth without harsh chemicals.
