The Sustainable Choice

Antiques are the ultimate green purchase. By choosing historical pieces over newly manufactured goods, you completely eliminate the carbon footprint of modern mass production while preserving exceptional, timeless craftsmanship.

FAQs

A cheval mirror is a freestanding, full-length mirror supported by a frame with four legs, featuring a swivel mechanism that allows the glass to tilt. The style originated in the late eighteenth century and gained widespread popularity during the Victorian era for use in dressing rooms and bedrooms.

Victorian examples were primarily crafted from dark hardwoods such as mahogany, walnut, or rosewood. The frames featured mortise and tenon joinery, heavy timber backboards, brass swivel fittings, and silvered glass mirror plates.

Authentic pieces feature hand-carved details such as scroll supports, heavy plinth bases, and period-correct brass adjustment knobs. The backboard will typically show signs of hand-planed timber, and the mirror plate may exhibit natural age marks or light foxing around the edges.

Place the mirror in a master bedroom, dressing room, or spacious hallway to add depth and reflect natural light. The dark mahogany tones create a strong focal point when set against neutral plaster walls or minimalist modern furniture.

Dust the wood frame regularly with a soft, lint-free cloth and apply beeswax polish occasionally to nourish the timber. Clean the glass plate using a damp cloth or mild cleaner, taking care not to let moisture seep into the frame joints or behind the glass edge.
