FAQs

Nineteenth-century overmantel mirrors typically feature classical architectural proportions, heavily carved wooden frames finished with gold leaf, and were designed to sit directly above a fireplace mantel to reflect light around the room.

Authentic period pieces are constructed using a carved timber or gesso-on-pine base, meticulously hand-applied with gold leaf or metal leaf, and fitted with original heavy silvered glass plates displaying characteristic ageing.

Authentication relies on examining the construction of the wooden frame behind, the presence of foxing or oxidisation within the mirror plate, hand-carved detailing rather than moulded resin, and traditional fixings.

Placing a historical gilt mirror within a modern scheme creates an effective focal point, contrasting clean architectural lines with ornate craftsmanship and reflecting natural light to enhance spatial depth.

Giltwood requires gentle dusting with a soft, dry brush and must be kept away from direct sunlight, excess moisture, and chemical cleaners to prevent degradation of the delicate gold leaf finish.
