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.

Crafted around 1900 to 1910, Edwardian gilt mirrors typically feature slender rectilinear profiles influenced by classical Neoclassical and French design revivals. They incorporate gilded composition moulding with understated detailing such as beadwork, acanthus leaves, or classical corner mounts.

Mirrors from this period generally consist of a softwood backboard and frame structure coated in plaster or composition moulding, finished with gold leaf or metallic gilding, and fitted with silvered plate glass.

Authentic period mirrors exhibit natural age-related craquelure, subtle tarnishing or oxidisation of the gilding, dark spots on the reflective mirror plate, and original timber backboards or hand-cut fitting fixings.

A full-length gilt mirror can be displayed leaning against a wall in a hallway or bedroom, or mounted vertically above architectural feature points to maximize natural light and visually expand modern room proportions.

Dust the frame regularly using a soft, dry microfibre cloth or artist brush, avoiding liquid cleaners, solvent solutions, or abrasive materials that could erode the delicate water gilding or composition detail.
