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

Convex mirrors gained widespread popularity in the late 18th and early 19th centuries, predominantly during the Regency period. They were designed to bounce ambient light around a room while offering a wide-angle view of the interior space.

These mirrors typically feature a carved timber frame lined with a layer of gesso, which was subsequently gilded using gold leaf. The curved convex glass was fitted inside an ebonised inner slip to accentuate the visual depth of the mirror plate.

Authentic pieces frequently exhibit signs of age such as subtle foxing or mercury degradation on the glass plate, visible gesso beneath worn gold leaf, and traditional wood-backed construction with period hanging fixtures.

A smaller convex mirror functions effectively in narrow spaces such as hallways, alcoves, or integrated into a gallery wall. Its curved surface reflects light across the room, contributing visual interest without overwhelming the wall.

Dust the gilded frame gently using a soft dry brush to avoid disturbing delicate gold leaf layers. Avoid liquid chemical cleaners on gilded surfaces, and clean the glass plate lightly using a damp microfibre cloth.
