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

Overmantel mirrors from the 19th century feature wide horizontal proportions designed to sit above a fireplace hearth, often decorated with architectural motifs such as fluted columns, leaf capitals, and molded gesso detailing finished with gold leaf.

Craftsmen constructed frame bases using durable woods like pine or lime, coated them with gessoa mixture of chalk and animal glueto carve ornate shapes, and applied thin layers of gold leaf over clay bole.

Authentic period pieces often display fine surface craquelure throughout the gesso layer, hints of red clay bole showing through worn gold leaf, hand-loomed or wood-plank backboards, and natural oxidisation on the mirror glass.

Position the mirror centrally above a chimney breast or modern sideboard to establish a strong focal point, using its warm metallic finish to contrast against contemporary neutral paintwork.

Dust the ornate details lightly using a clean feather duster or dry soft brush, avoiding water or chemical cleaning solutions which can dissolve historic water-gilded finishes.
