FAQs

A Georgian toilet mirror, also known as a dressing glass, is a tabletop mirror designed to rest atop a dressing table or chest of drawers. Popularised in the 18th century, these pieces typically feature an adjustable swivel glass mounted on upright posts above a wooden box base containing small drawers for trinkets and jewellery.

Authentic period pieces were constructed primarily from solid and veneered mahogany, walnut, or satinwood, frequently utilising pine or oak as secondary internal woods. The mirror plates consisted of silvered glass, while brass handles, knobs, and side tension screws provided functional hardware.

Key indicators include hand-dovetailed drawer joints, hand-planed secondary timbers on the underside, and natural age-related oxidisation on the mirror glass. Look for classical proportions, shield-shaped or oval frames, bow-fronted bases, and traditional brass drop handles or brass tension knobs.

Position the piece atop a sideboard, chest of drawers, or console table to establish a classic focal point. Contrast the rich mahogany grain with neutral wall tones, contemporary ceramics, or framed prints to balance traditional woodwork with modern design elements.

Dust the timber frame regularly with a dry, lint-free microfiber cloth and apply a thin layer of natural beeswax polish annually, buffing gently along the wood grain. Clean the mirror glass carefully using a damp cloth, avoiding excess moisture near the wooden border to protect the silvering.
