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.

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

An overmantel mirror is a wide wall-mounted mirror specifically designed to sit directly above a fireplace mantelpiece. Popular throughout the nineteenth century, these mirrors were crafted to fill the architectural space above the hearth and reflect ambient room lighting.

Victorian craftsmen primarily utilised solid hardwoods and veneers such as walnut, mahogany, and rosewood. Decorative elements often incorporated boxwood or satinwood stringing, marquetry inlays, carved moulding, and silvered mercury glass plates.

Authentic pieces generally exhibit hand-cut joinery, original wood backing panels, light natural oxidisation to the timber, and minor foxing on the glass plate. The underside and back typically show dark aged patina rather than fresh machine-planed wood.

Mount the mirror above a contemporary or traditional mantelpiece to create a focal point. Contrast the dark, detailed timber frame with modern wall paint, clean architectural moulding, or neutral upholstery.

Dust timber surfaces regularly with a soft dry cloth and apply a high-grade beeswax polish annually along the grain. Clean the mirror glass by spraying cleaner directly onto a microfibre cloth rather than the glass to prevent moisture from seeping behind the frame moulding.
