The Sustainable Choice

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.

FAQs

A toilet mirror, also known as a dressing glass or vanity mirror, is a small portable mirror designed to sit atop a dressing table, chest of drawers, or sideboard. Popularised in the 18th century, these pieces typically feature a swivelling glass plate supported by upright posts above a plinth base containing small storage drawers.

Georgian toilet mirrors were predominantly constructed from dense hardwoods such as Cuban mahogany, walnut, or satinwood. Key features often include hand-cut dovetail drawer joints, brass brassware including handles and side turning knobs, and gilded wood borders or carved accents.

Authentic 18th-century pieces display signs of hand-craftsmanship, such as hand-sawn secondary woods like pine or oak for drawer linings, original brass turnings, and shaped bracket feet. The mirror plate may show natural foxing or silvering degradation consistent with age, alongside carved detailing or a gilded inner frame slip.

Positioning an antique toilet mirror on a contemporary sideboard, dressing table, or hallway console creates a refined decorative focal point. Pairing rich mahogany wood with neutral plaster walls, contemporary ceramics, or minimalist brass accessories balances historic texture with clean modern aesthetics.

Dust the wooden frame regularly with a dry microfibre cloth and apply a high-quality beeswax polish once or twice a year following the grain. Avoid chemical glass cleaners on original mirror plates, as moisture can seep behind the frame and accelerate silvering degradation.
