Convex mirrors, often known as bullseye or bankers mirrors, gained immense popularity during the Regency and Victorian periods, designed originally to provide a wide-angle view of a room.

These mirrors typically feature a hand-carved wooden frame finished with gesso and gold leaf, surrounding a curved glass plate set within an ebonised slip.

Authentic pieces usually exhibit age-related wear to the gilding, hand-carved detailing with subtle irregularities, and old backing boards or mirror plates with subtle foxing.

This piece works well as a focal point on a narrow wall space or above a mantelpiece, reflecting light and adding a layer of historical contrast to modern minimalist schemes.

Giltwood frames should be dusted extremely gently with a soft, dry brush, avoiding all water, liquid cleaners, and abrasive cloths to protect the delicate gold leaf layer.
