FAQs

The Rococo style, originating in France in the early 18th century, is characterised by asymmetrical compositions, serpentine curves, acanthus leaves, C-scrolls, and elaborate gilding. It emphasized lightness, elegance, and naturalistic motifs over the heavy symmetry of the preceding Baroque period.

Traditional giltwood brackets were constructed from carved softwoods, such as pine or lime wood, coated in gesso and clay bole. Thin sheets of gold leaf were then water-gilded or oil-gilded onto the surface, often combined with mercury-backed glass panels.

Authentic period giltwood typically displays natural wear to the gold leaf, revealing reddish or grey clay bole beneath. Modern reproductions often use composition metal leaf or metallic paint, which lack the depth, subtle oxidisation, and hand-carved tool marks of original pieces.

A mirrored giltwood wall bracket provides architectural interest when hung in a narrow hallway, alcove, or powder room. It serves as a focal point to display small porcelain objects, candles, or miniature sculptures, reflecting light into smaller areas.

Giltwood surfaces should only be dusted gently with a soft, dry camel-hair brush, avoiding water, chemical cleaners, or damp cloths which can dissolve water gilding. Mirrored glass should be cleaned by applying mirror cleaner sparingly to a cloth rather than spraying directly onto the glass.
