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.

Overmantel mirrors were designed to sit directly above a fireplace mantelpiece, featuring wide, arched or rectangular profiles with carved gesso and gilded frames to reflect light within Victorian reception rooms.

Frames were typically constructed from carved timber coated in gessoa compound of binder, chalk, and pigmentbefore being finished with water or oil gilding using thin sheets of gold leaf.

Authentic pieces display hand-carved wooden backings, joinery consistent with the period, fine surface cracking within the gesso layer, and natural oxidisation or distressing on the gold leaf finish.

Position the mirror above a contemporary fireplace, modern console table, or lean it against a chimney breast to establish a structural focal point and enhance natural light.

Dust gently with a soft dry brush or microfibre cloth, keeping moisture, chemical solvents, and liquid glass cleaners away from the gesso and gold leaf to prevent surface deterioration.
