Giltwood is wood that has been treated with a layer of gold leaf, a technique that became popular in the 18th and 19th centuries.  In antique furniture, it is considered a sign of luxury.

 

Antique beveled glass refers to an ancient glassmaking process where the edges of glass are cut and polished at an angle to create a beveled edge.  Beveling enhances the reflection of light and adds a decorative touch to the glass.  This process was commonly used in mirrors, windows and doors, especially in the Victorian era.
