The Sustainable Choice

FAQs

Crafted during the reign of King Edward VII (19011910), Edwardian overmantel mirrors feature lighter, more refined proportions than heavier Victorian designs. They frequently incorporate dense wood veneers, delicate marquetry, satinwood stringing, and bevelled glass plates proportioned to sit directly above a fireplace mantelpiece.

Cabinetmakers predominantly utilized dark, fine-grained hardwoods such as rosewood, mahogany, or walnut for the primary structure. Decorative accents were created using marquetry inlays made from contrasting timbers like satinwood or boxwood, surrounding a thick bevelled mirror plate.

Authentic period examples feature hand-cut joinery, original silvered glass with minor atmospheric oxidisation, and precise geometric or neoclassical marquetry. The reverse side typically shows hand-finished timber backboards rather than modern materials like plywood or MDF.

Position the mirror centrally above a fireplace or atop a dining room sideboard to serve as an architectural anchor. The rich timber tones and classic geometry provide grounding structure when set against contemporary neutral palette walls.

Dust the timber frame using a soft, dry microfibre cloth and apply a natural beeswax polish along the grain twice yearly. Avoid spraying liquid glass cleaners directly near the frame edges to protect the delicate veneer and marquetry glue from moisture damage.
