FAQs

A cheval mirror, derived from the French word for horse due to its four-legged frame, is a full-length standing mirror mounted on a swivel mechanism. Introduced in the late 18th century, it became a standard piece of dressing room furniture during the Victorian era.

Traditional cheval mirrors are constructed from hardwoods such as mahogany, walnut, or oak, featuring mercury-silvered or silvered plate glass. The framing often incorporates cast brass pivots, threaded adjustment knobs, and hidden castors beneath the base.

Authentic 19th-century examples typically display hand-carved details, heavy timber bases designed for stability, and original iron or brass castors. Inspecting the back reveals hand-sawn timber panelling and evidence of age-related desilvering or light foxing on the glass.

Position a floor-standing mirror near natural light sources in a bedroom, dressing room, or grand hallway to amplify space and reflect architectural features. Pairing dark timber frames with neutral wall tones creates balanced visual contrast.

Clean the glass using a dry microfiber cloth or a mild, non-ammoniated cleaner applied to the cloth rather than directly to the glass. Maintain the wood frame by applying a natural beeswax polish twice a year along the grain.
