A Regency convex mirror, often referred to as a bullseye mirror, is a circular wall-hanging glass featuring a curved surface that reflects a wide, distorted panoramic view of a room, popular during the early nineteenth century.

These pieces are typically constructed from hand-carved softwoods such as pine or lime, coated in gesso, and finished with gold leaf or gilt paint, featuring blown curved glass plates.

Authenticity is determined by examining the old blown glass with its characteristic imperfections, the hand-carved wooden gesso frame, traditional joinery methods, and natural oxidisation of the gilt surface over time.

Interior designers often mount these statement pieces above a fireplace mantelpiece or in a hallway to bounce light around the space and create a dramatic focal point against plain walls.

Dust the carved frame gently with a soft, dry brush and clean the glass sparingly with a microfiber cloth and distilled water, avoiding harsh chemical cleaners that can damage the delicate gold leaf.
