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

A toilet mirror, historically referred to as a swing or cheval tabletop mirror, was designed during the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries to sit atop a dressing table or chest of drawers to assist with personal grooming.

Victorian dressing mirrors were typically crafted from solid hardwoods such as mahogany, walnut, or rosewood, paired with silvered mirror glass and carved scrollwork supports.

Authentic Victorian examples often display hand-carved scroll detailing, wooden or brass pivot fixings on the frame sides, and age-related foxing or oxidisation across the original glass panel.

Positioning a carved wooden dressing mirror on a contemporary hallway console table or bedroom sideboard provides an interesting contrast between historic craftsmanship and modern minimalist decor.

Clean the timber surfaces using a soft microfibre cloth and apply beeswax polish periodically, while taking care to clean the glass gently without moisture reaching the backing edges.
