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.
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.
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.

French Louis XVI style mirrors are distinguished by symmetrical geometric frames, refined Classical ornamentation, and ornate crestings often featuring musical instruments, floral garlands, or foliage.

These mirrors typically feature a carved timber core coated with layers of gesso, which is finely sculpted before leaf gilding is applied to create a luminous metallic finish.

Authentic pieces usually display natural age-related wear to the gilding, revealing red or grey clay bole underneath, along with original backboards and glass showing faint oxidisation or foxing.

Positioning a tall gilt pier mirror opposite a window maximises natural light, while placing it above a mantlepiece or leaning it against a neutral wall creates an architectural focal point.

Dust the gilded frame gently using a soft dry brush, avoiding water, liquid polishes, or chemical cleaners that can dissolve the gesso substrate or remove delicate gold leaf.
