Questions About Antique Chinese Mirrors
  • 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022
    To tell if a mirror is antique, check the glass to see if it's wavy or has any imperfections. Modern glass tends to be perfect. While this can be a clue, it might just signify that the mirror is old, not antique. Another thing to check for is the reflective coating on the back of the glass to see if it has begun oxidizing and has any age scratches. Finally, check out the frame to see if it has the appearance of age. Shop a large collection of antique mirrors from some of the world’s top sellers on 1stDibs.
  • 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022
    An antique mirror is a mirror of considerable age that has historical significance or is in great demand due to its beauty or rarity. Oftentimes, you’ll hear an antique be defined as any item that is more than 100 years old, but this is not a specific measurement of an antique nor is it a requirement. Shop a collection of antique mirrors from some of the world’s top sellers on 1stDibs.
  • 1stDibs ExpertFebruary 22, 2021
    You can tell if a mirror is antique through a number of indicators. For example, most antique mirrors are quite small in size, measuring no more than 2 feet. Additionally, antique mirrors will show signs of sports or discoloration. Many antique mirrors will have bubbling or waves in the glass.

    To determine the age of a Chinese furniture piece, look carefully at the joinery and finish. Natural expansion and contraction of the wood over time will cause a joint to protrude or retract, distorting a once-seamless fit. Antique lacquer finishes become crackled and worn over time. Areas of exposed wood, such as the underside of a table, the footrest of a chair, or the back of a cabinet should appear raw and dry compared to the finished surface. With use, the legs of tables and chairs become weathered near the bottom from precipitation and use.

  • 1stDibs ExpertNovember 4, 2024
    To identify antique Chinese furniture, look carefully at its details. Chinese craftsmen often built furniture using mortise and tenon joinery, eliminating the need for nails and screws. If you see this type of hardware, your piece is likely not at least 100 years old, especially if the hardware still looks new and shiny. Since antique furniture was handmade, you will normally see slight imperfections, such as tool marks or slight variations in carvings. Pieces that appear completely uniform and pristine are less often genuine antiques.

    When present, maker's marks can also be helpful. Research the marks to learn more about when the maker was active and producing pieces like yours. Alternatively, you can have a certified appraiser or experienced antique dealer evaluate your furniture for you.

    Shop an assortment of antique Chinese furniture.
  • 1stDibs ExpertOctober 21, 2020

    Repairs and replacements can go toward devaluing any piece of antique or vintage furniture, and any modifications or repairs done to a centuries-old mirror should be handled by experts and executed with care. Because antique Venetian mirrors were handcrafted by Italian artisans and can in some cases be hundreds of years old, it is strongly recommended that you consult with experts in the field of restoring antique or decorative mirrors in the event that your piece should require restorative work.
