FAQs

Nineteenth-century French mirrors often feature neoclassical influences, architectural elements such as columns and cornices, and distressed painted finishes that reflect the grandeur of period salons.

Authentic pieces are typically constructed from solid timber frames, hand-carved details, and heavy plate glass, often finished with gesso and layered paint applications.

Authentication involves examining the silvering on the glass for natural oxidisation, inspecting the joinery of the wooden frame for period-appropriate construction, and checking for hand-carved rather than moulded ornamentation.

Leaning a large-scale antique mirror against a living room or hallway wall introduces verticality, bounces natural light around the space, and creates a sophisticated contrast against contemporary minimalism.

Preservation requires avoiding direct, harsh sunlight, dusting the carved wooden frame gently with a dry cloth, and using ammonia-free cleaner applied to a microfibre cloth rather than directly onto vintage glass.
