Antiques are the ultimate green purchase. By choosing historical pieces over newly manufactured goods, you completely eliminate the carbon footprint of modern mass production while preserving exceptional, timeless craftsmanship.

George II style mirrors, originating from mid-18th century England, are known for rich mahogany timbers, elaborate fretwork silhouettes, gilded carved details, and central motif inlays such as urns or crests.

Traditional mirrors from this era utilised dense mahogany wood, gold leaf gilding over gesso, mercury glass plates, and fine wood marquetry inlays for decorative medallions.

Authentic period pieces feature hand-sawn backboards, signs of oxidation or silvering degradation on the mirror glass, hand-carved joinery marks, and natural unevenness in the gilded gesso layers.

Position the mirror above a contemporary console table or fireplace mantelpiece to create a focal point that bridges traditional craftsmanship with modern design elements.

Dust the frame gently using a soft, dry microfibre cloth or pony-hair brush; avoid liquid cleaners or polish on the gilded areas, as moisture can dissolve the underlying gesso.
