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 gilt mirrors are recognised by their ornate wooden frames coated in plaster or gesso and finished with gold leaf gilding. They frequently feature architectural corner detailing, relief floral mouldings, and bevelled glass plates designed to maximize light reflection.

These frames were typically constructed from carved timber, such as pine or oak, overlaid with a composition of gesso and plaster to mould delicate details. Thin layers of gold leaf were then applied using water or oil gilding techniques over a base of coloured clay known as bole.

Authentic pieces often exhibit signs of gentle oxidisation or foxing on the silvering behind the mirror glass. Examining the reverse should reveal original solid wood backboards, while the gilding often shows subtle wear where the red or grey underlying clay bole shows through.

An ornate gilded mirror is commonly placed above a fireplace mantelpiece or positioned above a dining room sideboard to create a clear focal point. The rich gold finish offers visual warmth and contrast against both minimalist backdrop paint shades and modern furnishings.

Dust the gilded frame gently using a soft, dry feather duster or dry camel-hair brush, avoiding liquid cleaners which can dissolve historic water gilding. Mirror glass should be cleaned by spraying glass cleaner directly onto a cloth rather than onto the glass to prevent moisture from seeping into the frame border.
