This freestanding Edwardian cheval dressing mirror follows the refined Sheraton Revival style in dark brown mahogany with glass and brass. The slender frame displays an arched and stepped top cresting surrounding the vertical mirror glass. It hangs between two upright posts topped with turned urn finials and secured with brass side-adjusting tilt pivots, while the base consists of outward-sweeping splayed sabre legs. Measuring 165 cm high, 51 cm wide and 44 cm deep, the mirror functions well in an empty bedroom corner or dressing room for practical full-length reflection. The traditional profile blends easily with various classic and country house interiors.

FAQs

A cheval mirror, named after the French word for horse due to its four-legged frame, is a full-length floor-standing mirror mounted on side pivots that allow the glass plate to tilt.

Edwardian cheval mirrors were commonly crafted from mahogany, walnut, or rosewood, frequently incorporating delicate satinwood stringing, brass swivel fittings, and silvered glass plates.

Authentic Edwardian examples display light and refined proportions compared to heavier Victorian predecessors, hand-cut joinery, original brass pivot screws, and subtle line inlay decoration.

Positioning a cheval mirror in a light-filled bedroom corner or dressing room reflects natural light, creates visual depth, and adds structural wood tones to modern schemes.

Dust the timber frame regularly with a soft microfibre cloth and apply beeswax polish periodically, taking care to avoid contact between chemical glass cleaners and the surrounding wood.
