FAQs

Giltwood wall mirrors emerged as prominent decorative features during the 17th and 18th centuries, characterised by hand-carved wooden frames coated in thin layers of gold leaf over a gesso foundation.

Craftsmen carved intricate designs into timber, applied a smooth gesso foundation, and laid gold leaf onto a clay bole base using traditional water-gilding or oil-gilding techniques.

Authentic pieces display subtle wear revealing the reddish clay bole beneath the gold leaf, micro-cracking known as craquelure in the gesso layer, and irregularities in the hand-carved wooden back.

Positioning a gilded mirror above a clean-lined console table or fireplace mantel creates focal contrast, enhancing ambient light while adding texture to contemporary wall surfaces.

Dust the frame lightly with a soft, dry camel-hair brush, avoiding moisture, liquid solvents, or commercial polishes which dissolve gesso and strip gold leafing.
