FAQs

Regency style spans the early 19th century, drawing heavily on classical Greco-Roman motifs, architectural elements such as columns and pilasters, and symmetrical, balanced proportions.

These pieces typically feature a carved pine or gesso-on-wood substrate, finished with a layer of gold leaf applied over bole using traditional water gilding or oil gilding techniques.

Authentic period pieces often exhibit hand-carved detailing, original mercury or early silvered glass with foxing and oxidisation, and construction joints appropriate to the early 19th century.

Placing an expansive gilded mirror above a fireplace or anchoring it against a plain wall creates a striking focal point, reflecting natural light and contrasting effectively with minimalist modern furnishings.

Gilt surfaces are extremely delicate; they should be dusted gently with a soft, dry brush and kept away from direct sunlight, moisture, and chemical cleaning agents to protect the fragile gold leaf.
