Here is a good quality antique Regency carved gilded convex butlers wall mirror, circa 1820, in very good condition. The mirror is surmounted by a well-carved eagle pediment, flanked by acanthus-mounted leaves to the shoulders of the mirror. The oval gilt wood frame incorporates the original gesso balls around the original ebonised reeded slip frame that houses the original convex mounted glass mirror plate. The base of the mirror terminates on a very pretty foliate acanthus leave & floral apron. The back of the mirror frame retains its original backboards, along with the original chain.

Mirrors of this period and design were usually constructed of pine, incorporating a gesso, base before a gilded finish was applied. The carving to the frame on this mirror is crisp with a pleasantly balanced gilded finish to produce a lovely patination.

This style of mirror was used in large wealthy houses, in prominent positions to not only act as a mirror but also enable the butlers or serving staff to see who was coming into the house or a particular room, without peering around the corner or accidentally being seen themselves. The mirror would act as a tool and a cue to provide timely service in that particular room. This is why these mirrors are sometimes referred to as “butlers mirrors”.

The mirror is a good practical size, it’s not too large and not too small, and therefore, it can be used in most locations to enhance the room. The mirror would look superb in several rooms from the hallway, bedroom or living room. The mirror would certainly grace any home and is a great investment, as it is extremely functional. So don't miss out your chance to own a lovely piece of antique furniture.

If you live in one of the areas where we do not offer free delivery, please contact us for a delivery quote before purchasing the item. Delivery will be made by our specialised antique furniture delivery service, or in some cases we will use a courier service for distant deliveries.

Delivery times are usually 1-4 weeks depending on location we aim to deliver the majority of items within 2 weeks. All items are professionally packaged and fully insured in transit, therefore, we can assure you, your items will be securely protected in transit and arrive safely with you.

Once you have purchased an item, we will contact you by email and/or telephone and provide you with a provisional delivery date, in order for you to confirm if it is suitable for you. Once you have confirmed you can accept delivery on the provisional delivery date, we will book the delivery in with our shippers and it then becomes a confirmed delivery date.

We will also provide you with our shippers' contact details, in case you need to contact the driver on the day of delivery. It's helpful if you can provide us with both the landline and mobile telephone number, in case the driver cannot reach you on one of the numbers on the day of delivery, they can contact you on your alternative number.

In order to be able to offer you free delivery, it is based on a 1-man delivery only. For any large items that require 2 people to lift the item, we ask that you are available at the time of delivery to be able to give our shipper a lift off the van and into your house with the item. If you are not able to lift items yourself, we ask that you have someone on hand at the time of delivery to assist our shipper with lifting the item.

We will collect returns using our own specialist antique furniture delivery company. We will not accept returns via a courier service (due to experience of damaged items in transit).
