FAQs

Victorian mirrors often feature heavy ornamentation, classical revival motifs, and elaborate mouldings reflecting the eclectic tastes of the 19th century.

These pieces typically utilize carved timber or gesso over wood, finished with gold leaf or metallic gilding applied using traditional water or oil sizing techniques.

Authenticity is indicated by age-related wear to the gilding, hand-carved detailing, traditional joinery on the reverse, and historical mirror plate characteristics such as slight oxidisation or imperfections.

Positioning an ornate gilt mirror against a minimalist backdrop creates a striking focal point, balancing traditional craftsmanship with modern simplicity.

Gilded surfaces require dusting with a soft, dry cloth and should be kept away from direct sunlight and moisture to prevent flaking of the metallic leaf.
