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 freestanding, full-length dressing mirror supported by a frame with two uprights, allowing the glass to tilt on dual pivots.

Victorian examples were predominantly constructed from solid hardwoods such as mahogany, rosewood, or walnut, fitted with mirrored glass and brass hardware or castors.

Authentic pieces feature period joinery techniques, original brass adjustment handles, age-appropriate silvering or foxing on the glass, and splayed legs with period castors.

Position the mirror in a dressing room, master bedroom, or hallway corner to introduce height, enhance natural light, and create spatial depth.

Dust the mahogany frame regularly with a dry microfibre cloth and nourish the timber periodically with natural beeswax, avoiding harsh chemical cleaners near the mirror backing.
