FAQs

Rococo style gilt mirrors originate from 18th-century France, characterised by organic curves, intricate scrollwork, crest motifs, and gilding applied over wood or gesso frames.

Traditional giltwood mirrors were constructed using a hand-carved timber frame coated with gesso layers, followed by the application of thin gold leaf adhered with water or oil size.

Authentic antique giltwood mirrors often feature hand-carved wooden joinery, natural wear or foxing on the glass silvering, red or grey clay bole showing through worn gold leaf, and period iron hanging hardware on the reverse.

An oval gilt mirror creates a central focal point when positioned above a mantelpiece, console table, or vanity unit, contrasting warm metallic tones against neutral or modern wall colours.

Gilded frames should be dusted gently using a soft dry brush or microfibre cloth, avoiding water, chemical cleaners, or moisture that can damage delicate gold leaf and gesso coatings.
