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.

FAQs

Nineteenth-century gilt mirrors often feature classical ornamentation, hand-applied gold leaf over gesso, and substantial wooden frames designed to reflect light and enhance room proportions.

Authentic pieces typically utilise a carved wooden base, coated with layers of gesso and bole, onto which thin sheets of gold leaf are applied by hand.

Authentication involves examining the frame for hand-carved details, traditional gesso application, foxing or oxidisation on the mercury or silvered glass, and signs of age-appropriate wear on the backing boards.

Leaning a large gilt mirror against a wall adds verticality and reflects natural light, serving as a focal point that contrasts effectively with minimalist or contemporary furnishings.

Preservation requires dusting gently with a soft, dry brush, avoiding all chemical cleaning agents, and maintaining stable room humidity to prevent cracking of the delicate gesso and gold leaf layers.
