FAQs

The Adam style originated in the 18th century, developed by the Adam brothers who drew inspiration from classical antiquity, incorporating symmetrical layouts, delicate ornamentation, and motifs such as urns, husks, and ribbons.

Period mirrors typically feature carved timber frames finished with gesso and gold leaf, often utilizing traditional joinery techniques and hand-applied water gilding over red bole.

Authentic pieces exhibit signs of age such as hand-carved detailing, historic gesso shrinkage cracks, mercury or early silvered glass with foxing, and traditional construction methods on the reverse.

Such a piece can be used as a focal point above a fireplace mantel or console table, adding contrast and a sense of classical elegance to contemporary minimalist or maximalist schemes alike.

Gilt surfaces are fragile and should be dusted gently with a soft, dry brush, avoiding water, chemical cleaners, and direct sunlight to prevent degradation of the delicate gold leaf.
