FAQs

A pier glass is a mirror designed to hang on the wall space, known as a pier, between windows or above a console table, originating in 18th-century European interior design.

Traditional Italian mirrors were crafted from carved timber or pine, coated with gesso, hand-painted with tempera or oil paints, and detailed with gold leaf or gilding.

Examine the reverse side for hand-carved joinery, natural shrinkage in the wood frame, silvering or mercury oxidisation on the glass, and organic paint wear near high-touch edges.

Position the mirror above a minimalist console table or mantelpiece to create a striking focal point that introduces botanical detail and warm tones into a neutral colour scheme.

Dust the frame gently with a soft dry brush or microfibre cloth, avoiding liquid cleaners, solvent sprays, or damp cloths that could lift the painted finish or gilding.
