FAQs

The Louis XV style, or Rococo, emerged in France during the 18th century, characterised by asymmetry, curves, and naturalistic motifs such as shells and foliage.

Authentic period pieces typically feature hand-carved wooden frames finished with gold leaf applied over a prepared gesso layer, housing silvered or mercury glass plates.

Authentication involves examining the construction of the wooden frame, the composition of the gesso, hand-carved details, and the characteristics of the glass, such as bevels and foxing.

Placing a large ornate mirror leaning against a neutral wall creates a striking focal point that contrasts contemporary minimalism with historic craftsmanship.

Gilt surfaces should be cleaned only with a soft, dry microfibre cloth, avoiding moisture and chemical cleaning agents to prevent damage to the delicate gold leaf.
