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

French Restoration style, prominent in the early 19th century following the First Empire, is characterised by classical symmetry, restrained gilded wood mouldings, and intricate floral or mythological low-relief carvings.

These mirrors were typically constructed from hand-carved pine or lime wood coated with gesso, painted with red bole, and layered with thin gold leaf using a traditional water gilding technique.

Authenticity can be verified by examining the reverse for hand-sawn wooden backboards, looking for natural wear exposing the red bole beneath the gold leaf, and observing age-related foxing in the original glass.

A French Restoration mirror can serve as a focal point above a contemporary fireplace mantel, a modern console table, or hung in a hallway to contrast structured minimalism with ornate period detailing.

Preserving giltwood requires gentle dusting with a soft feather duster or dry microfibre cloth, strictly avoiding liquid cleaners, water, or abrasive polishes that dissolve historical water gilding.
