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

Popular during the 19th century, Victorian oval gilt mirrors feature wooden or gesso frames coated in gold leaf, often adorned with classical motifs such as beaded borders, egg-and-dart moulding, and floral accents.

The frames typically consist of carved pine or lime wood coated with layers of chalky gesso, finished with hand-applied gold leafing, and fitted with hand-cut bevelled glass or silvered mirror plates.

Authentic period mirrors exhibit fine age cracking called craquelure in the gesso, gentle wear revealing the red or grey clay bole beneath the gilded layer, and heavy solid wood backboards.

Position the mirror above a contemporary console table or fireplace mantel to create a focal point, contrast straight lines, and bounce light across the room.

Remove dust using a dry soft feather duster or soft artist brush, ensuring water or liquid polishes are never applied as moisture can dissolve the gesso and damage original gilding.
