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 japanned pier mirror is a tall decorative wall glass featuring European lacquerwork designed to imitate East Asian lacquer techniques, historically positioned on the wall space between two windows.

These mirrors typically utilise a timber carcass, such as pine or oak, coated with layers of spirit-based varnish or resin, finished with gold leaf gilding and raised relief decoration.

Authentic period pieces display age-appropriate craquelure across the lacquer finish, hand-carved timber backboards, original mercury glass with natural oxidation, and raised gilding with fine hand-painted detailing.

Positioning the mirror above a console table or mantelpiece creates a focal point where historical decorative work contrasts with clean modern architecture.

Dust the surface lightly with a dry microfibre cloth, avoiding water, chemical solvents, or commercial waxes that could dissolve the traditional resin finish and lift gold leaf ornament.
