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 girandole mirror is an ornamental wall mirror fitted with attached candle branches, designed during the 18th century to reflect light and increase ambient illumination in formal reception rooms.

Georgian girandoles were hand-carved from woods such as pine or lime, coated in gesso, and water-gilded with gold leaf, holding mercury-backed glass plates and metal candle sconces.

Authentic period examples display hand-carved timber joinery, natural gesso shrinkage lines beneath worn gilding, and original mercury glass plates exhibiting characteristic dark oxidisation spots.

Position a symmetrical pair on either side of a fireplace, flanking a sideboard, or along a hallway to create focal points and introduce historic gilding into modern decorative schemes.

Dust gently using a soft feather duster or dry artist paintbrush, avoiding all water, liquid sprays, and cleaning chemicals that can dissolve historic water gilding and gesso.
