Choosing the Right Mirror TV Frame: Foundation vs. Fully Bespoke
July 24, 2025
If you’re considering a Gold Mirror TV for your home or in a commercial setting, two popular choices stand out: the Regency TV frame style and the Regent TV frame style. Both offer ornate, luxury styling and are especially suited for home décor, hotel TVs, and commercial interiors. Here’s how they compare.
1. Processing Technique
- Regency: Part of our Museum Quality Ornate Collection, the Regency TV frame begins with a base moulding, onto which hand-laid ornaments are applied. Its 100mm face width can be reduced to 80mm for a more subtle mirror over TV look.
- Regent: Uses a ready ornamented moulding, cut to fit any TV, with a streamlined 79mm profile that works beautifully in commercial interiors.
2. Ornamentation Details
- Regency: Straight and flat filigree edging and corner leaf ornaments add refinement while concealing mitred joints. An inner double trim can be removed for bespoke sizing.
- Regent: Features curved leaf reliefs on the outer edges with a simpler beaded inner trim, making it ideal for both home décor and hotel TV setups.


3. Finishes & Customisation
- Regency: Highly versatile, with finishes ranging from antique gold paint to luxurious 24k gold leaf—ideal for high-end mirror TVs in residential or hospitality projects.
- Regent: Offered in antiqued gold leaf as standard. Custom finishes require stripping and repainting.

4. Frame Functionality
- Regency: Can be transformed into a Mirror TV Frame, a Motorised Moving Artwork TV, or a traditional TV frame.
- Regent: Offers the same versatility, with the added option of the Foundation Mirror TV Frame, perfect for both home décor and commercial interiors.
5. Décor Compatibility
Both designs shine in Regency-style interiors, where symmetry, luxury, and straight lines take centre stage. Whether you’re elevating a period home, installing a mirror over TV in a hotel suite, or furnishing a commercial interior, these TV frames bring timeless elegance.
Your choice?
Choosing between the Regency and the Regent comes down to flexibility in ornamentation, finishes, and customisation. For a fully bespoke, museum-quality option, the Regency is unmatched. For a slightly slimmer, ready-ornamented profile, the Regent is a refined choice.
