Description

A delightful Georgian mahogany fretwork mirror of miniature proportions, c.1800.

The original rectangular plate has the lovely detail of rounded top corners and is held within a finely carved gilded slip surrounded by carved moulding. The whole is surrounded by fine fretwork.

The plate has desirable level of foxing, highlighting the piece's age whilst the remaining reflective. There is some light wear commensurate with age, most notably a slight gap to the fretwork joint at the top right (please see photographs) but generally the whole remains in a very good condition.

A really decorative and unusual piece.

FAQs

Georgian mirrors typically feature classical proportions, symmetrical designs, and sophisticated woodwork such as mahogany veneers and intricate fretwork.

They were primarily constructed from dense hardwoods like mahogany, often incorporating pine secondary woods, gilded gesso details, and hand-silvered glass plates.

Authenticity is assessed by examining the aged patina of the wood, hand-cut joinery, old backing boards, and natural foxing or oxidisation within the mirror plate.

It can be hung on a narrow wall space or placed above a mantelpiece to add historical contrast, warmth, and texture to minimalist or modern spaces.

Use a soft, dry microfibre cloth to dust the wooden frame, and apply glass cleaner sparingly to a cloth rather than directly onto the antique mirror plate to protect the silvering.
