FAQs

Late 19th-century mirrors often combine classical revival motifs, such as bead and reel mouldings or foliate appliques, with traditional gilt finishes reflecting Victorian aesthetics.

These pieces typically feature a carved wood or composition frame finished with gold leaf or gesso over a timber base, housing hand-silvered float or sheet glass plates.

Authentic pieces often exhibit foxing or oxidisation in the mirror plate, hand-cut joinery on the reverse, and appropriate wear to the original gilding rather than modern chemical finishes.

Hanging an ornate gold oval mirror above a contemporary console table or fireplace creates a striking focal point, balancing historical texture with clean, modern lines.

Keep the mirror away from direct sunlight and damp environments. Clean the glass gently using a soft, lint-free cloth and distilled water, avoiding harsh chemical cleaners that can damage the silvering or frame.
