This Regency convex giltwood mirror is an English wall mirror dating from circa 1820. The circular giltwood frame has a brightly burnished water-gilded inner rim mounted with spherical ball appliques and frames a convex mirror plate. A carved wood stylised eagle crest surmounts the top, and acanthus leaf scrollwork decorates the base. The materials used are giltwood, pine and glass in a gold colour scheme in the Grand Regency style. Measuring 115 cm high, 59 cm wide and 9 cm deep, this wall mirror is designed to hang on a staircase wall or other reception spaces to spread light and add dimension to an interior. The piece is presented in excellent condition with well-carved detail throughout.

FAQs

The Regency style spans the early 19th century, drawing heavy inspiration from classical Greek, Roman, and Egyptian motifs, often characterised by symmetry, architectural proportions, and opulent gilding.

These pieces were typically constructed from carved softwood or composition ornament applied to a wooden frame, finished with a layer of gesso and water-gilt or oil-gilt gold leaf.

Authentic pieces often feature old float or blown curved glass with minor imperfections, hand-carved wooden elements rather than mass-produced resin, and historical oxidisation and craquelure on the gesso and gold leaf.

A convex mirror acts as a focal point and expands visual space; pairing it with contemporary minimalist furniture creates a striking contrast that highlights its historical craftsmanship.

Giltwood is extremely delicate and water-soluble; cleaning should be limited to very gentle dusting with a soft, dry brush, avoiding all chemical polishes and moisture.
