FAQs

Originating during the reign of King Louis Philippe I of France from 1830 to 1848, these mirrors are characterised by clean rectangular silhouettes, rounded upper corners, and flat lower edges, often decorated with gold leaf gilding and foliate crestings.

Frame structures were crafted from solid timber coated in gesso moulding, finished with applied gold leaf gilding, and fitted with mercury-backed or early silvered glass mirror plates.

Authentic pieces exhibit signs of age such as natural red bole showing through worn gilding, light foxing or grey spots on the mirror plate, hand-carved details, and original wood backing boards.

A Louis Philippe giltwood mirror serves as a focal point when positioned above a fireplace mantelpiece, mounted over a console table, or hung in a hallway to reflect light and enhance room depth.

Dust the gilded frame gently using a dry, soft-bristled brush or microfiber duster, ensuring water or liquid chemical cleaners never touch the gold leaf surface to avoid dissolution of the underlying gesso.
