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.

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.

Dust gently with a soft, dry microfibre cloth and avoid using chemical solvents or moisture on the delicate gilt surface to prevent flaking.

Pairing a heavily ornamented gold mirror with minimalist furniture creates a striking focal point, balancing traditional craftsmanship with modern simplicity.

Authenticity is assessed by examining the hand-carved details, the composition of the gesso, signs of age in the wood grain, and the presence of original mercury or early silvered glass.

These pieces were typically constructed from carved softwood or hardwood, coated in layered gesso, and finished with gold leaf applied over a bole base.

Victorian mirrors often incorporate heavy ornamentation, classical motifs, and elaborate gesso mouldings reflecting historical revival movements.
