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

Rococo Revival style emerged in the mid-nineteenth century, drawing inspiration from French eighteenth-century Louis XV designs. It features elaborate naturalistic ornament, asymmetrical scrollwork, acanthus motifs, and heavily gilded or carved wooden frames.

Giltwood frames were typically constructed from pine or lime wood cores, coated with gesso, and decorated with molded composition work (compo) before gold leaf application. The glass plates were historically silvered and often hand-bevelled along the edges.

Authentic period giltwood frames often show natural age-related craquelure within the gesso, subtle wear revealing the reddish clay bole underneath the gold leaf, and dark oxidisation spots on the silvering of original glass plates.

Positioning an ornate giltwood mirror against a modern minimalist wall or alongside clean-lined contemporary furniture creates a balanced, high-contrast focal point that reflects light across the room.

Dust giltwood frames gently using a soft, dry camel-hair brush to avoid flaking fragile gold leaf. Never use water, liquid cleaners, or abrasive polishes, as these dissolve water-gilded gesso and permanently strip the gilding.
