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

Arched top gilt mirrors became prominent during the Victorian and French Second Empire periods, designed primarily to sit above fireplace mantels or between tall windows to maximize natural light and add height to high-ceilinged reception rooms.

Frames from this era were constructed using a timber core covered in a carved gesso composition, which was then finished with gold leaf applied via water or oil gilding techniques.

Authentic period mirrors feature solid timber backboards, light surface wear revealing the reddish clay bole underneath the gold leaf, and natural aging or oxidation on the glass plate.

Position the mirror above a living room mantelpiece or a hallway console table to create an anchor point, balance modern minimalist furniture, and reflect ambient lighting throughout the room.

Dust the frame gently using a dry, soft-bristled brush or feather duster, avoiding water or liquid cleaners that can dissolve the water-gilded gesso finish.
