FAQs

French Neoclassical mirror design emerged in the late eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, characterised by symmetrical geometry, straight lines, and motifs inspired by classical antiquity such as urns, garlands, and swags.

Frames were typically constructed from carved timber, often finished with wood veneers, plaster gesso, gilding, or painted finishes to resemble marble or fine hardwoods.

Authentic period mirrors feature solid wood backboards held by early fasteners, natural wear or oxidisation on the reflective glass silvering, and carved or moulded decorative details showing minor age-related shrinkage.

Position the mirror centrally above a fireplace mantelpiece, dining room sideboard, or entryway console table to act as an architectural focal point and reflect natural light.

Dust the timber frame regularly with a dry, soft cloth, and clean the mirror glass using a lightly dampened lint-free cloth without applying harsh chemical sprays directly to the frame surface.
