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

Louis XV style mirrors feature prominent Rococo design elements, including asymmetrical curves, leaf scrollwork, floral crests, and rounded or arched tops designed to complement period paneling.

Historically, these frames were constructed from carved timber coated with gesso, finished with gilding or paint, and fitted with hand-blown silvered or mercury glass plates.

Authentic period pieces often feature solid wooden backboards, natural surface wear on gesso and gilding, oxidisation or foxing in the mirror silvering, and hand-cut joinery.

An overmantel mirror can be positioned above a fireplace, mounted over a dining room sideboard, or hung in a hallway to add architectural depth and reflect light.

Dust the frame lightly using a soft dry feather duster or dry cloth, avoiding water and liquid chemical cleaners that can dissolve original gesso or painted finishes.
