A cushion mirror features a convex, slope-sided frame that swells outward towards the edge, creating a characteristic padded or cushioned profile popular during the late 17th and 18th centuries.

These pieces typically utilise a softwood base carcass veneered with exotic and native hardwoods such as walnut, fruitwood, or oak, decorated using precision-cut marquetry inlay patterns.

Authentic pieces often show hand-bevelled mercury glass, older secondary timbers on the reverse, hand-cut dovetails or archaic fixings, and natural oxidisation within the wood veneers.

It functions effectively as a focal point when hung above a mantelpiece or console table, contrasting clean modern lines with historic warmth and texture.

Keep the mirror away from direct sunlight and excessive humidity to protect the veneer and backing. Clean the glass gently with a dry or barely damp microfibre cloth, avoiding harsh chemicals.
