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.

A Louis XV style girandole mirror is an ornamental wall mirror featuring attached candle arms designed to reflect light. Originating in 18th-century France, this style is characterised by asymmetric Rococo scrolls, floral motifs, and bow crestings.

These mirrors were traditionally constructed from carved wood or cast bronze with a hand-applied gold leaf finish over gesso. The reflective surface consists of mercury-backed silvered glass.

Authentic pieces display hand-carved detail or hand-cast bronzework with natural wear to the gilding, often showing red bole or grey gesso beneath. The backboard typically shows hand-sawn timber or aged fixings consistent with historical production methods.

A symmetrical pair can be mounted flanking a fireplace, positioned above a sideboard, or hung in a dining room to add warmth and classical architectural balance to modern wall treatments.

Dust gilt frames gently using a soft, dry camel-hair brush, avoiding water or chemical cleaners that degrade gold leaf. Clean glass panels using a lightly dampened cloth, ensuring moisture does not touch the gilding or frame joints.
