FAQs

A toilet mirror, also referred to as a toilet glass, is a small free-standing mirror designed to sit on a dressing table or chest of drawers. Popularised in the late 17th and 18th centuries, these pieces typically feature a swivelling mirror suspended between upright supports above a base containing drawers.

Georgian toilet mirrors were predominantly constructed from fine hardwoods such as walnut or mahogany, often decorated with figured veneers and crossbanding. The mirror plates from this era were made using mercury amalgams, held within hand-moulded timber frames.

Authentic 18th-century toilet glasses frequently display hand-cut dovetail joinery in the base drawers, hand-cast brass hardware, and original mercury-silvered glass exhibiting mild desilverisation. The undersides and backboards of genuine period examples usually retain historic hand-planing marks.

Position a wooden toilet mirror atop a clean-lined sideboard or modern bedroom dresser to establish a focal point. Balance the warm timber tones by styling the surface with neutral ceramic trinket dishes, a linen table runner, and subtle brass accents.

Dust the wooden framework regularly with a soft, dry microfibre cloth and apply a natural beeswax paste twice per year along the grain. Avoid using liquid glass cleaners directly on the mirror surface to protect the silvered backing foil from moisture damage.
