Our dealers are highly experienced in packing and shipping fragile, high-value antiques. Because you are in direct contact with the dealer, you will be able to easily go through all available shipping and insurance options together to ensure your item arrives safely.
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.

An overmantel mirror is a decorative framed mirror specifically designed to hang or rest directly above a fireplace mantelpiece, popularised during the 18th and 19th centuries to reflect light and balance room proportions.

Overmantel frames from this period were predominantly constructed from dense hardwoods such as rosewood, mahogany, and walnut, often housing silvered or mercury-backed glass plates.

Authentic period pieces exhibit distinct figure and grain variations characteristic of rosewood, natural oxidisation on the wooden backboards, hand-cut joinery, and light foxing or distress on the original mirror glass.

Positioning a dark wood architectural mirror above a contemporary fireplace or hallway console creates a defined focal point that bridges historic craftsmanship with modern design elements.

Maintain the timber by dusting regularly with a dry cloth and applying high-grade beeswax sparingly, ensuring glass cleaning products are applied directly to a rag rather than the wooden frame to prevent moisture damage.
