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

These pieces typically reflect the ornate and eclectic tastes of the Second Empire and Napoleon III periods, combining classical revival motifs with functional luxury for the boudoir.

They are crafted from heavy moulded or cut crystal glass, framed and hinged with cast bronze that was often gilded using mercury or electroplating methods.

Authentic items feature hand-finished bronze mounts with patination appropriate to their age, precise glass cutting with manual polishing marks, and traditional pin-hinge mechanisms rather than modern screws.

Placed on a dressing table, mantelpiece, or coffee table, it serves as a reflective focal point that adds texture, history, and a metallic accent to contemporary surfaces.

Dust gently with a soft, dry microfibre cloth and avoid using chemical cleaners or polishes on the gilt metal to preserve the original surface finish.
