The Sustainable Choice

FAQs

Chippendale style mirrors, originating in mid-eighteenth century England, are defined by intricate fretwork frames, architectural cresting, and elaborate giltwood carvings featuring acanthus leaf motifs, C-scrolls, and naturalistic flora.

These mirrors were traditionally constructed using dense mahogany backings with hand-carved pine or lime wood ornaments, coated in gesso and finished with genuine gold leaf water gilding surrounding a reflective glass plate.

Authentic eighteenth-century examples feature dense, heavy timber with visible hand-saw marks on the backboard, irregular thickness in the mirror glass, and hand-cut joinery within the framing timber.

A Chippendale style mirror serves as a focal point when positioned above a contemporary console table or fireplace mantel, creating textural contrast against neutral walls or minimalist plaster finishes.

Dust the carved frame regularly with a dry, soft-bristled brush, avoiding liquid cleansers or water on gilt surfaces to prevent dissolving the underlying gesso layer.
