FAQs

During the 19th century, English mirrors featured timber frames coated with gesso and decorated with gold leaf gilding, drawing design influence from Neoclassical and Victorian decorative styles.

Frames were constructed using softwood profiles covered with gessoa mixture of chalk and binderwhich was carved or moulded into intricate patterns before water or oil gilding was applied.

Authentic period pieces display natural age-related wear, subtle fine cracking in the gesso substrate known as craquelure, minor foxing on the mirror plate, and hand-cut timber backing boards.

A large gilt mirror can be placed above a mantelpiece or hung over a console table as a focal point to reflect light and add architectural interest to contemporary living spaces.

Dust the frame gently using a soft, dry camel-hair brush, avoiding water or liquid cleaning solutions that could dissolve the gesso substrate or damage delicate gold leafing.
