FAQs

The Rococo movement emerged in France during the early 18th century as a reaction against the symmetry and rigidity of Baroque art, later spreading throughout Europe and deeply influencing Italian decorative arts with its emphasis on asymmetry, scrollwork, and natural motifs.

Authentic period pieces are typically constructed from carved softwood or hardwoods such as lime or pine, coated with multiple layers of gesso and bole, and finished with thin sheets of gold leaf applied by hand.

Authenticity is assessed by examining the hand-carved details, the formulation of the gesso and underlying bole layers, the presence of age-related wear or oxidisation on the gilding, and the characteristics of the glass plate.

Interior designers often use these mirrors as focal points in contemporary spaces to create visual contrast, placing them above minimalist fireplaces, console tables, or modern buffets to reflect light and add architectural depth.

Giltwood surfaces are extremely delicate and should be dusted exclusively with a very soft, dry brush or microfibre cloth, avoiding all liquid cleaners, chemical solvents, and direct sunlight to prevent cracking or flaking of the gold leaf.
