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

A carved giltwood mirror is a wall mirror set within a timber frame that has been sculpted with decorative patterns and coated in thin gold leaf over a prepared gesso layer.

Traditional construction relies on hand-carved timber, often pine or oak, which is coated in gesso and clay bole before water or oil gilding is applied alongside reflective glass plate.

Authentic pieces typically exhibit subtle wear revealing the underlying reddish clay bole, hand-cut wooden backing boards, original glass with minor silvering loss, and traditional joinery.

Positioning the mirror above a mantelpiece or console table creates a dramatic focal point while maximizing light distribution and spatial depth across neutral or contemporary walls.

Dust the carved frame gently using a soft, dry camel-hair brush, avoiding water or liquid polish which damages gilding, and wipe glass plate carefully with a slightly damp cloth.
