FAQs

The Louis Philippe style emerged in France during the reign of King Louis Philippe in the mid-19th century, characterised by understated elegance, clean classical lines, and restrained ornamentation compared to earlier extravagant periods.

These pieces typically feature a solid timber base structure, layered with hand-carved wooden details and applied gesso, often finished with metallic leaf or historical paint layers, housing hand-silvered glass plates.

Authenticity is assessed by examining the backboards for old pine or oak planks, hand-cut screws or nails, the presence of mercury or early silvering oxidation on the glass, and the hand-applied nature of the gesso and carving work.

Placing a large antique mirror above a fireplace mantel or leaning it casually against a living room wall creates an effective focal point, contrasting historical craftsmanship with contemporary minimalist surroundings.

Preservation involves keeping the mirror away from direct sunlight and high humidity fluctuations, dusting gently with a dry, soft cloth, and avoiding chemical cleaners on the sensitive gesso, painted surfaces, and antique glass.
