Description

Could this be a perfect present perhaps? This heart shaped mahogany toilet mirror from the Edwardian period is in lovely clean condition. It is great quality and of course most useful. The inlaid drawers hold all those bits and pieces that are better out of the way, the clean mirror with the bevel edge is good for make up or hair. The Sheraton style handles are original and typical of the revival that took place around the turn of the century. There are the impressive little solid brass turnings on the top of the arms that hold the mirror and everything sits on the neat splay bracket feet. A lovely item in superb condition. .............................................The width shown is maximum on the outside of the splay foot, likewise the depth.

FAQs

Toilet mirrors, also termed dressing glasses, gained widespread popularity during the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries. Designed to sit atop dressing tables or chests of drawers, they allowed individuals to adjust the glass angle for personal grooming and often featured built-in drawers for storing small vanity items.

These mirrors typically feature solid mahogany or mahogany veneers, often decorated with satinwood or boxwood stringing and inlaid banding. The base drawers commonly incorporate hand-cut dovetail joints, while the mirror frame pivots between turned uprights topped with turned wood or cast brass urn finials.

Authentic pieces often exhibit original silvering or slight desilveration and foxing on the mirror plate. Examining the underside and back panels reveals period-correct tool marks, natural timber shrinkage, and hand-cut joinery around the drawer construction and swivel mounts.

An antique toilet mirror can be placed atop a contemporary chest of drawers, sideboard, or dressing area to provide contrasting texture and warm timber tones. The tilting plate reflects ambient light, creating depth when set against neutral or dark wall finishes.

Dust the woodwork regularly with a dry microfibre cloth and apply a high-grade beeswax polish periodically along the grain. Avoid chemical sprays or ammonia-based glass cleaners near the wood frame, as liquid runoff can damage the inlay and original finish.
