Where should I hang an antique wall mirror?

These mirrors suit principal living spaces, hallways, or above mantelpieces where they reflect light and anchor room layouts. Ensure the wall structure securely supports the weight of heavy wooden and gesso frames using appropriate fixings.

How do I clean an antique gilt frame?

Dust the carved surfaces gently with a soft, dry brush to prevent damage to fragile gold leaf layers. Avoid using liquid cleaners, water, or chemical sprays near the gilded areas, as moisture lifts old gesso and leaf.

Are these mirror plates original?

Many pieces retain their original antique glass, identifiable by slight warping, bubbles, or soft oxidation known as foxing. Some mirrors feature replacement plates fitted during past centuries to maintain clear reflections.

How do I identify a Rococo Revival mirror?

Look for characteristic asymmetrical C-scrolls, floral garlands, and naturalistic shell motifs carved into the frame corners. These nineteenth-century pieces recreate the theatrical flair of earlier French eighteenth-century designs.
