FAQs

Victorian overmantel mirrors are characterised by their generous scale and architectural frames, traditionally designed to sit on the mantlepiece above a fireplace to reflect light and enhance the sense of space in a room.

These pieces typically feature a hand-carved wooden or composition frame finished with gold leaf or gesso, housing a heavy silvered glass plate held securely within a robust timber backboard construction.

Authentic pieces often exhibit signs of age such as foxing or oxidisation on the original glass plate, hand-applied gilding techniques, and period-appropriate joinery or fixings on the reverse.

Positioning the mirror above a fireplace creates a traditional focal point, while leaning it against a living room wall adds architectural presence and reflects natural light to brighten the space.

Dust the frame gently with a dry, soft brush and avoid using chemical cleaning agents or moisture on the gilded surface to prevent damage to the delicate gold leaf finish.
