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

French Rococo style mirrors are characterized by elaborate asymmetrical carving, scrolling acanthus leaves, rockwork flourishes, and naturalistic motifs such as floral crestings. Developed in the 18th century, this style emphasizes fluidity and ornamental gilding.

Traditional giltwood frames were constructed from carved timber, typically pine or lime, coated with layers of gesso (a mixture of glue and chalk). Red or yellow clay bole was applied over the gesso to provide a smooth base for gold leaf application.

Authentic giltwood displays natural wear where the underlying clay bole or timber shows through high points. Look for microscopic surface cracking in the gesso, known as crazing, and evidence of water gilding techniques rather than modern spray paint or bronze powder coatings.

An ornate giltwood mirror serves as a focal point when positioned above a fireplace mantel or modern console table. Placing intricate historical frames against neutral, minimalist walls creates a balanced visual contrast within modern interior schemes.

Dust giltwood frames gently using a soft, dry camel-hair brush to prevent disturbing delicate gold leaf. Avoid liquid cleaners, damp cloths, or commercial polishes, as water and solvents dissolve water gilding and degrade historical gesso layers.
