FAQs

A Regency cheval mirror is a full-length, free-standing floor mirror suspended between two upright posts, allowing the glass frame to tilt. Developed in the late 18th and early 19th centuries, these pieces feature neoclassical proportions, turned finials, and splayed legs on brass castors.

These mirrors were predominantly constructed using solid and veneered mahogany, flame mahogany, or rosewood over a timber core framework. The mirror plate originally featured mercury silvering, held in place with timber backing boards and adjustable brass side knobs.

Authentic period pieces display hand-cut joinery, solid backing boards showing natural wood shrinkage, and period brass fittings such as castors and side tension bolts. The mirror glass may exhibit subtle foxing or de-silvering consistent with age, alongside turned details such as acorn or urn finials.

Position the mirror in a bedroom, dressing area, or hallway to add visual depth and reflect light. Combining rich mahogany timber tones with light walls and modern textiles creates a balanced contrast between historic furniture and contemporary decor.

Dust the mahogany framework regularly with a soft dry cloth and apply a natural beeswax polish along the wood grain twice a year. Avoid chemical glass cleaners on antique mirror plates to prevent moisture from seeping behind the frame and damaging original backings or silvering.
