Nineteenth-century mirrors frequently feature intricate moulded gesso decoration applied over a wooden substrate, drawing inspiration from classical, baroque, and rococo revival motifs.

These pieces typically comprise a hand-carved soft or hardwood frame coated in layers of gessoa mixture of plaster of Paris and gluewhich was then moulded, gilded, or painted.

Authentic pieces exhibit natural ageing such as fine craquelure in the gesso, oxidisation or foxing on the original mercury or silvered glass plate, and hand-cut joinery at the frame corners.

Positioning a large antique mirror leaning against a living room wall or above a contemporary fireplace introduces textural contrast, reflects natural light, and adds historical depth to clean, minimalist spaces.

Maintain stable indoor humidity and temperature levels to prevent the gesso from cracking, and dust gently with a dry, soft microfibre cloth without using liquid cleaners or chemical polishes.
