The Sustainable Choice

FAQs

George II style mirrors originate from mid-18th century British design, combining Classical architectural symmetry with Rococo ornamentation, often featuring carved motifs such as scallop shells, acanthus leaves, and broken pediments.

These mirrors were constructed from hand-carved softwoods such as pine or lime wood, coated with gesso, and finished with gold leaf gilding over silvered or mercury glass plates.

Authentic period revival pieces exhibit hand-carved wood joinery, natural wear to the gilded layer revealing red bole or grey gesso underneath, and faint irregularities in the mirror plate.

Position the mirror above an entryway console table, between tall windows, or over a fireplace mantle to introduce texture and historical contrast within contemporary wall schemes.

Dust the frame regularly using a dry, soft camel-hair brush or feather duster, avoiding chemical cleaners, polishes, or water that can dissolve the delicate gesso and leaf surface.
