FAQs

Nineteenth-century French mirrors often reflected classical revival styles, drawing inspiration from Louis XIV, XV, and XVI designs, characterised by ornate carvings, gesso finishes, and symmetrical elegance.

These mirrors typically utilised a solid wood base, often pine or oak, coated with layers of gesso to create a smooth surface for sculptural detailing, gilding, or paint applications.

Authenticity is determined by examining the backboards, hand-beveled glass with natural oxidisation, hand-carved wooden elements, and traditional gesso cracking patterns consistent with age.

An antique mirror serves as a striking focal point when mounted above a modern fireplace or leaned against a minimalist wall to create a contrast between historical texture and clean lines.

Preservation involves keeping the piece away from direct sunlight and high humidity to protect the fragile gesso and wood frame, using a soft, dry cloth for dusting, and avoiding harsh chemical cleaners on the glass.
