How do I clean an antique repousse metal frame?

Clean metal frames gently with a soft microfibre cloth to remove dust without disturbing the aged patina. Avoid harsh chemical dips that strip the character from copper, brass, and silver surfaces. Take care to keep moisture away from the mirror glass and any wooden backing boards during the cleaning process. A specialist gentle polish can be applied sparingly to raised areas if required.

Are these mirrors suitable for bathrooms?

Original antique mirrors utilise vintage mirror glass and traditional backing materials that are sensitive to persistent damp environments. Placing them in steamy bathrooms risks damaging the silvering on the glass. Display these pieces in dry reception rooms, hallways, or bedrooms where the timber and metal frames remain protected from excessive humidity.

How do I distinguish Arts and Crafts mirrors from Art Nouveau ones?

Arts and Crafts pieces tend to emphasise hand-beaten textures, honest construction, and structured motifs like Celtic knots or stylised trees. The focus remains on the visible craft of the metalworker. Art Nouveau examples lean towards flowing, organic, undulating lines inspired by natural forms, featuring whipped curves and botanical subjects like honesty seed pods and peacocks.

What is the difference between a vanity mirror and a dressing table mirror?

Dressing table mirrors are typically larger, heavier table-standing items designed to sit permanently on a piece of bedroom furniture, often supported by pivoting side arms. They frequently incorporate weighted sterling silver or solid oak frames. Vanity mirrors and hand mirrors are generally smaller, lighter objects intended for picking up and holding during personal grooming. They share the same embossed metalwork techniques but serve a more portable function.
