FAQs

Early Georgian triple plate mirrors are horizontal wall mirrors created during the early eighteenth century, characterised by three individual glass panels set within a single framed structure. The construction technique was developed when manufacturing single large sheets of silvered mirror glass remained technically difficult and expensive.

These mirrors were traditionally constructed using solid and veneered native hardwoods such as walnut or mahogany, often accented with hand-carved gilded wood or gesso slips. The glass plates feature hand-cut bevelled edges and hand-blown glass backs.

Authentic period pieces exhibit hand-sawed walnut veneers, subtle irregularities in the glass silvering, hand-carved parcel gilding, and period timber backboards secured with wrought iron nails or wooden pegs rather than modern fixings.

Positioning a horizontal mirror above a fireplace mantelpiece, dining room sideboard, or hallway console table creates balance and amplifies ambient light across contemporary and period living spaces.

Dust the wood frame and gilded surfaces regularly using a soft, dry microfibre cloth, keeping moisture and chemical liquid glass cleaners away from gilded areas and timber veneers.
