Strictly Vetted Dealers

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.

Secure Transit

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.

The Sustainable Choice

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.

FAQs

Nineteenth-century French arched mirrors, often associated with the Louis Philippe period, feature clean rounded upper corners, a flat base designed to sit atop fireplaces, and wood or gesso frames finished in gold leaf over a coloured clay base known as bole.

Historic gilded mirrors were built using a carved wooden core covered with layers of plaster composition or gesso, painted with red or yellow clay bole, and layered with thin sheets of genuine gold leaf that were water-gilded and burnished.

Authentic pieces generally exhibit natural wear revealing the reddish or dark clay bole beneath the gold leaf, along with mercury glass or silvered glass showing minor foxing, dark spots, and hand-carved joinery on the timber backboard.

An arched gilt mirror functions as a focal point when placed above a fireplace mantelpiece, console table, or dining room sideboard, introducing warm metallic tones that contrast with minimalist or modern textured walls.

Dust gilt frames gently using a soft, dry camel-hair brush or feather duster; water and liquid cleaners must be avoided as moisture can dissolve historic gesso and detach fragile gold leafing.
