FAQs

The Louis Philippe style emerged in France during the mid-19th century, characterised by clean, understated lines, gently rounded upper corners, and restrained ornamentation that bridged the gap between ornate empire designs and simpler bourgeois tastes.

These frames are typically built from pine or fruitwood, heavily coated in gesso and plaster to create smooth surfaces for gilding, paint, or subtle moulding details, housing hand-silvered mercury or early silver-nitrate glass plates.

Authentic period pieces often feature original heavy backboards held with handmade iron nails, foxing or oxidisation within the mirror plate, and traditional gesso cracking patterns that indicate natural ageing rather than artificial distress.

Placing an antique mirror above a modern fireplace or leaning it casually against a bedroom wall creates an effective focal point, balancing historic character with clean, contemporary surroundings.

Dust the gesso frame gently with a soft, dry brush and clean the glass using a microfiber cloth lightly dampened with distilled water, avoiding harsh chemical sprays that can seep behind the silvering or damage the aged finish.
