FAQs

Victorian overmantel mirrors are large, decorative looking glasses specifically designed to be hung or placed on the mantelpiece above a fireplace, often featuring elaborate gesso or giltwood frames.

These frames were typically crafted from softwood or pine as a base, then coated with gesso and composition ornament (compo) before being water-gilded or oil-gilded with gold leaf.

Authenticity is indicated by heavy, plate glass with slight foxing or imperfections, hand-carved or molded compo details, original wood backing boards held by old nails, and signs of age such as crackle in the gesso.

Positioning the mirror above a fireplace or anchoring it on a blank wall allows it to reflect light and expand the visual space, creating a striking focal point that contrasts well with contemporary minimalism.

Gilded frames should be dusted very gently with a soft, dry brush to avoid damaging the delicate metallic leaf and gesso, avoiding all liquid cleaners and chemical sprays.
