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 Georgian serpentine toilet mirror, also known as a dressing glass, is a free-standing tabletop mirror featuring a swivel glass plate mounted above a serpentine-fronted base containing drawers.

These pieces were predominantly constructed from mahogany timber with secondary woods such as oak or pine for interior drawer construction, featuring silvered glass plates and ivory or bone handles.

Authentic Georgian dressing mirrors display hand-cut dovetail joinery on small drawers, naturally occurring foxing on the glass silvering, and hand-carved supports with period-correct hardware.

Position the mirror atop a bedroom chest of drawers, a hallway console table, or a vanity unit to create vertical proportion and introduce timber textures into a contemporary scheme.

Dust the wood framework using a dry microfibre cloth and apply a natural beeswax polish sparingly, taking care to avoid harsh chemical cleaners on the reflective glass.
