FAQs

Originating in France during the late 18th century, the cheval mirrornamed after the French word for horse due to its four-legged framewas designed to allow a full-length view of an outfit, becoming a staple in elite dressing rooms.

Authentic period cheval mirrors are typically constructed from dense hardwoods like walnut, mahogany, or oak, featuring tenon joints, hand-carved details, and brass swivel pivots that allow the glass frame to tilt.

Authentication involves examining the mirror glass for minor imperfections or foxing, checking for hand-cut screws or traditional joinery methods, and inspecting the timber grain and patina for natural ageing.

A traditional standing mirror adds functional depth and reflects natural light, making it effective in modern bedrooms, hallways, or dressing areas to create a contrast against minimalist decor.

Maintain the timber by dusting with a dry microfibre cloth and applying occasional beeswax to nourish the wood, while cleaning the glass with a non-ammonia solution applied to a cloth rather than directly onto the frame.
