FAQs

A cushion mirror features a distinctive frame design where the outer moulding slopes inward towards the central plate, creating a three-dimensional, pillowed profile that originated in classical European design traditions.

Authentic period pieces are typically constructed from a carved wooden base, overlaid with gesso to create fine relief details, and finished with gold leaf or metallic gilt paint.

Authenticity is indicated by hand-carved wooden construction under the gesso layer, foxing or oxidisation within the mirror glass plates, traditional joinery methods, and the natural wear of the gilding over time.

Pairing an ornate gilded frame with minimalist modern furnishings creates a striking focal point, reflecting natural light and adding historical texture to neutral or monochromatic colour palettes.

Gently dust the carved surfaces with a dry, soft-bristled brush or microfiber cloth. Avoid all liquid cleaners, chemical solvents, and abrasive materials, as moisture can damage both the fragile gesso and the historic gilding.
