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

A George II toilet mirror is an 18th-century tabletop vanity mirror mounted on swivel uprights above a plinth base, designed during the reign of King George II for personal grooming.

These mirrors were primarily crafted using walnut or mahogany veneers over oak or pine carcasses, featuring giltwood slips around the glass panel and brass hardware.

Authentic pieces feature hand-cut dovetail joints in the base drawer, original brass pivot screws, period-appropriate foxing on the mirror plate, and carved fretwork crestings.

Position the mirror atop a chest of drawers, a hallway console, or a dressing table to introduce historical character and reflected light to modern interiors.

Clean timber surfaces by dusting with a dry microfiber cloth and applying beeswax sparingly along the grain, while avoiding liquid cleaners directly on the original mirror plate.
