Strictly Vetted Dealers

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.

Secure Transit

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.

The Sustainable Choice

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.

FAQs

Irish Regency Rococo mirrors combine classic nineteenth-century Regency proportions with expressive Rococo elements such as fluid C-scrolls, acanthus leaf carvings, and organic rockwork motifs.

These pieces were typically constructed with hand-carved pine or mahogany frames, covered in gesso, and finished with thin gold leaf using water or oil gilding techniques before housing mercury or silvered mirror glass.

Authentic pieces feature evidence of hand-carving on the reverse, subtle wear or red bole showing through the gilded surface, and age-related oxidation or foxing on the reflective mirror plate.

Positioning a giltwood mirror above a contemporary fireplace mantel or a minimalist sideboard creates a striking visual contrast between historical craftsmanship and clean modern architecture.

Dust gently with a soft, dry camel-hair brush, avoiding water, chemical solvents, or abrasive cloths that can dissolve or lift delicate gold leaf coatings.
