FAQs

A William IV cheval mirror is a full-length, freestanding dressing mirror produced during the reign of King William IV between 1830 and 1837. Suspended between two upright posts on dual horizontal supports, it features a swivelling mechanism that allows the angle of reflection to be adjusted.

These mirrors were predominantly crafted using timber such as flame mahogany, walnut, or rosewood veneers over solid oak or pine carcasses. The frame construction features hand-cut mortise and tenon joints, glass plate, and cast brass fittings including thumb-screws, sabots, and castors.

Authentic William IV pieces are characterised by substantial proportions, often featuring turned top finials, splayed sabre legs, brass caps, and brass wheel castors. Look for signs of historical timber patination, period brassware, and original joinery techniques.

Place a mahogany cheval mirror in a bedroom corner, dressing room, or spacious hallway to increase light and spatial depth. The rich wood tones contrast effectively with contemporary muted plaster tones, linen textiles, or neutral modern furnishings.

Dust the timber frame regularly with a dry microfibre cloth and nourish the wood periodically using a quality beeswax polish. Avoid harsh chemical spray cleaners near the glass edges, keep the frame out of direct sunlight, and clean mirror glass with a damp cloth.
