Foyer Table in Gilded Teak with Tall Carved Rococo Mirror

A mirror frame this tall and this openly pierced has one real enemy, and it is not weight - it is racking. A tall rectangle wants to lean into a parallelogram, and every square of timber you cut away to make the scrollwork takes stiffness out of the frame that would have resisted it.

Our master Indian artisans handle that in two ways, both decided before a single scroll is cut. First, the pierced sides are not carved as a chain of separate flourishes; each side has a continuous stem of solid timber running from the base moulding all the way to the crest, and the scrolls are carved off that stem. Whatever the frame looks like from the front, there is an unbroken path of wood up each side.

Second, the mirror plate is captured in a rebate on all four sides and backed by a board fitted into the same rebate. That back-board is what actually holds the frame square - it is the shear panel of the whole assembly, doing quietly from behind what the pierced front cannot do.

Get those two right and the carver is free to cut the front as openly as the design asks.

Material: solid teak throughout, console and mirror frame, hand-carved. No veneer, no engineered board.

Console: low bombe form with a fully pierced apron of scrolls and shells around a central cartouche, carved corner scrolls, short turned feet.

Top: dark marble slab with a moulded edge following the shaped front.

Mirror: tall rococo frame with shaped head and pierced crest, sides carved off a continuous solid stem, plate captured in a rebate with a fitted back-board.

Finish: hand-applied gilding over the carved timber, sealed for durability.

Sizes: custom sizes made to order - final measurements confirmed in writing before production, including the combined height of table and mirror.

Warranty: 20 years on the solid teak frames and joinery; lifetime cover against termite damage.

Photography: images show the actual product, not renders.

The tall mirror is the piece that governs how this set is packed. Its crest projects, its sides are pierced, and its height means any flex during handling concentrates at the middle of the frame.

It travels braced across its width so it cannot flex, with the plate cushioned across its whole surface and shaped supports on both faces of the pierced crest so nothing can rock. Every outward-turning scroll along the sides is individually protected.

The console is wrapped first in a soft non-abrasive layer laid against the gilding, then in foam shaped around the pierced apron and the corner scrolls rather than pressed against them, with separate protection at the feet. The marble top travels flat on a padded board with guards on all four edges, packed apart from both frames.

Each element goes into a rigid outer crate, strapped so nothing shifts. This multi-layer protective packaging is why dent-free arrival is guaranteed. Please unpack while the delivery team is present.

Delivery is free anywhere in India for the complete set - no freight charge, no distance surcharge, no difference between a metro address and a smaller town.

The set is made to order, so production begins once your console dimensions, mirror height, marble and gilding are confirmed in writing. We share the timeline at that point and keep you updated through carving, gilding and mirror fitting.

Crates travel together with a carrier used to handling carved furniture, stone and mirror glass. You are contacted before delivery so someone can be present to receive and inspect everything.

Arrival is guaranteed dent-free. If transit damage has occurred, photograph it with the delivery team present and contact us and we will resolve it. On site the marble is laid onto the console first and the mirror is then positioned above it - and because the mirror is tall, we recommend it is also secured to the wall. Tell us in advance and we build the fixings into the frame.

The solid teak frames and their joinery are covered for 20 years from the day the set reaches you - the console's apron, corner joints and feet, and the mirror frame's stems, head, crest joints and rebate.

Lifetime cover against termite damage applies to both pieces for the life of the furniture. Seasoned solid teak carries oils that termites will not attack, and since both pieces are teak all the way through, including the mirror's back-board framing, there is no softer material inside for insects to reach.

If anything covered arises, send us photographs and we will assess and repair or replace. Warranty work on pierced gilded carving is done by artisans working in the original techniques - re-carving from the solid and re-gilding to match - so a repair reads as part of the piece rather than as an addition to it. Both warranties apply anywhere in India and stay with the furniture.
