FAQs

The Louis XV style, emerging in 18th-century France, is characterised by asymmetrical curves, naturalistic motifs such as foliage and shells, and an overall graceful, flowing rococo aesthetic.

Authentic period frames are typically carved from softwoods such as pine or lime, layered with gesso, and hand-gilded with gold leaf. The glass is often mercury or early silvered plate with hand-bevelled edges.

Authentification relies on inspecting the backboards, construction joints, hand-cut nails, and the oxidisation patterns within the silvering of the glass, which show age-related degradation rather than artificial distressing.

Placing a gilt mirror against a minimalist, neutral wall creates a striking focal point, balancing contemporary simplicity with ornate historical texture.

Gilded surfaces are extremely delicate and should only be dusted gently with a soft, dry microfibre cloth. Avoid all chemical cleaning agents, water, and direct sunlight to prevent cracking and flaking of the gold leaf.
