Every single antique dealer on our platform is individually approved by our internal team. We verify their professional trade history, ethical standards, and photographic quality to ensure a secure, high-standard buying environment. Upon joining, every dealer agrees to a strict 9-point code of conduct. While issues can occasionally arise, our dealers typically resolve them swiftly and directly with the buyer. In fact, since our founding in 2002, Sellingantiques has only had to step in to help resolve an issue on roughly five occasions—a true testament to the quality of our dealers and their dedication to your happiness.
Our dealers are highly experienced in packing and shipping fragile, high-value antiques. Because you are in direct contact with the dealer, you will be able to easily go through all available shipping and insurance options together to ensure your item arrives safely.
Antiques are the ultimate green purchase. By choosing historical pieces over newly manufactured goods, you completely eliminate the carbon footprint of modern mass production while preserving exceptional, timeless craftsmanship.

Italian Neoclassical mirrors from the late 18th century are defined by symmetrical lines, classical architectural proportions, and inspiration from Greco-Roman art, frequently incorporating urns, sphinxes, and floral swags.

These mirrors were crafted from hand-carved softwoods, coated with gesso, and finished using water gilding with gold leaf applied over a clay bole base.

Authentic period pieces exhibit hand-carved joinery on the frame reverse, original plate glass showing subtle oxidation, and natural wear where the underlying clay bole shows through the gilded surface.

Position the mirror as a central focal point above a fireplace mantelpiece or console table to reflect light and provide historical contrast against modern wall finishes.

Dust the frame gently using a soft feather duster or dry brush, ensuring no water, liquid cleaners, or chemical solvents touch the water-gilded finish.
