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.

Originating in the late 17th to early 18th century, a cushion frame mirror features a broad, convexly moulded frame, often veneered in woods such as walnut with cross-grain mouldings and slim gilt accents.

These mirrors typically feature a pine secondary wood structure covered in walnut or mahogany veneers, alongside water-gilded moulding trims and early mercury-amalgam glass plates.

Period pieces demonstrate hand-sawn backboards, original iron fixings, natural foxing or mercurial desilverisation on the glass plate, and cross-grained timber moulding construction.

Position the mirror centrally above a console table or fireplace mantelpiece to create a focal point that contrasts historical timber textures against contemporary wall finishes.

Position the frame away from direct heat sources, dusting gently with a dry microfibre cloth, and avoid applying liquid glass cleaners directly near the gilded edges or veneer boundaries.
