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.

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

Regency period giltwood mirrors, originating in early 19th-century Britain, are characterised by classical motifs, geometric symmetry, and gilding influenced by Greco-Roman and Egyptian architectural revivals.

These mirrors feature carved timber or composition frames coated in layers of gesso, which are subsequently hand-gilded with gold leaf using water or oil gilding techniques before housing mercury or silvered glass plates.

Authentic pieces generally display period-correct construction on the reverse, such as hand-sawn pine backing boards, natural oxidisation or foxing to the glass plate, and micro-cracking within the gesso layer.

Positioning a large mirror above a mantelpiece or console table creates a central focal point that bounces light across the room, adding architectural scale to modern living areas.

Dust the gilded surfaces gently using a soft, dry artist brush to prevent lifting loose gold leaf, avoiding liquid cleaners on the frame, and applying glass cleaner strictly to a microfiber cloth rather than directly to the glass plate.
