Dealers Notes

Our stock includes early oak and walnut furniture from the 18th century, as well as more formal pieces from the Georgian period. Clocks, barometers and globes are complemented by Colonial cabinets, furniture and early arms. Their scientific instruments, which include early microscopes, telescopes and equipment such as sextants, provide a fascinating insight into the evolution of technology, whilst demonstrating fine artistry and craftsmanship. One of Hansord’s many exhibitions was entitled ‘From simplicity to complexity with a little eccentricity’ and this continues to be the guiding mantra behind their collection today.

Flemish cushion mirrors, originating in the 17th century, feature a convex, sloping frame profile (the cushion) often covered in ebonised wood and frequently accented with applied moulding or metal plaques.

These frames are typically constructed from softwoods or hardwoods coated with an ebonising finish, featuring ripple-moulded details and applied silvered brass or repousse metal plaques fixed with pins.

Authentic pieces exhibit period construction methods such as hand-cut joinery, oxidized silvering on the metal elements, early mirror plate with bevels or minor imperfections, and genuine age-related wear to the ebonisation.

Such a mirror serves as a striking focal point above a minimalist console table or a fireplace, contrasting contemporary clean lines with intricate historical texture and dark tones.

Dust gently with a soft, dry microfibre cloth, avoid liquid cleaners or harsh chemicals on the silvered and ebonised sections, and maintain stable humidity levels to prevent wood movement.
