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.

Victorian neoclassical gilt mirrors often feature oval frames adorned with classical motifs such as central urns, laurel swags, and decorative ribbon bows inspired by 18th-century designs.

Frames were typically constructed from wood with applied moulded gesso, which was subsequently finished with gold leaf or gilded coatings over a clay bole base.

Authentic period mirrors frequently display natural ageing to the glass, such as foxing, along with original wood backing boards and minor stress cracking in the gesso surface.

Positioning a pair of matching oval mirrors side-by-side above a hallway console, sideboards, or bedside tables creates balance and reflects light across contemporary living spaces.

Avoid using water or liquid chemicals on gilded surfaces; instead, gently remove dust using a dry, soft bristle brush or a clean microfibre cloth.
