FAQs

A convex mirror features an outward-curving glass lens that reflects an expanded field of view, gaining widespread popularity in Western Europe during the late 18th and early 19th centuries within Regency and Georgian interiors.

These mirrors were constructed using carved timber frames overlaid with moulded gesso and real gold leaf, often incorporating an inner reeded or ribbed ebonised wooden slip to encapsulate the curved mirror plate.

Authentic period examples display signs of hand-carving or hand-applied moulding, natural crazing or distress on the gilt gesso layer, aged oxidation or distortion in the glass, and timber backboards exhibiting historical shrinkage.

Mounting a convex mirror above a fireplace mantelpiece or console table creates a central focal point, allowing the curved glass to catch ambient light and reflect broad room vistas.

Dust the gilded frame gently with a soft dry brush to prevent removing the delicate gold leaf, avoiding water or solvent cleaners, and wipe the glass using a barely damp microfibre cloth.
