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.

A cheval mirror is a full-length floor-standing mirror suspended between two upright posts that allow the glass plate to swivel. Developed in the late eighteenth century, the design takes its name from the French word for horse due to the four-legged frame structure.

Authentic period cheval mirrors are typically crafted from dense hardwoods such as mahogany, walnut, or rosewood. They frequently feature hand-turned uprights, brass finials, brass adjustment handles, and silvered glass plates.

Look for traditional joinery techniques such as mortise and tenon joints, original brass hardware with natural oxidisation, and hand-turned fluting on the vertical supports. The mahogany frame should exhibit natural grain depth and age-appropriate wear.

Position the mirror in a dressing area, master bedroom, or spacious hallway to add vertical scale and reflect ambient light. Pairing rich mahogany tones with neutral walls creates a balanced contrast between classical craftsmanship and modern aesthetics.

Dust the timber frame regularly using a soft microfiber cloth and apply a natural beeswax polish occasionally to nourish the wood finish. Clean the mirror glass using a dedicated glass cleaner sprayed directly onto a cloth to protect the surrounding timber.
