This Regency cheval mirror is made from dark brown mahogany with a glass plate and brass hardware. The full length rectangular tilting glass frame is set between square uprights topped with turned finials and supported by splayed legs on original brass castors, complete with turned rails and side knobs. The frame features simple moulded edges, while the trestle base includes reeded roundels above curved legs. Measuring 195 cm high, 65 cm wide, and 58 cm deep, this floor standing mirror adjusts for angle using the side knobs. It fits well in a bedroom, dressing room, or hallway as a practical accessory for checking outfits.

FAQs

A Regency cheval mirror is a full-length dressing mirror supported by a dual-upright wooden frame, allowing the glass to tilt on side pivots. Popularised in the early nineteenth century, the term cheval derives from the French word for horse, referring to the four-legged support structure.

These mirrors were primarily crafted from fine dense hardwoods such as mahogany or rosewood, often featuring hand-lathe turned stretchers, brass adjustment knobs, and splayed legs fitted with cast-brass caps and castors.

Authentic Regency pieces feature hand-cut joinery, original silvering or mild oxidisation on the mirror glass, original cast-brass hardware, and natural wear to the brass castors and side adjustment knobs.

Positioning a mahogany cheval mirror in a bedroom or dressing area reflects natural light and introduces classical proportions and rich wood tones to contemporary living spaces.

Dust the timber regularly with a soft cloth and apply beeswax sparingly along the grain, taking care to clean the glass plate with non-ammonia products to protect the underlying mirror silvering.
