Archival Detail
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.

A Victorian dressing mirror, historically known as a toilet glass or swing mirror, typically features an oval or rectangular plate suspended between carved upright supports mounted onto a shaped plinth base.

These mirrors were predominantly constructed using dense hardwoods such as mahogany, walnut, or rosewood, combined with silvered glass plates and brass swivel mechanism fittings.

Authentic examples display hand-carved scroll detailing, original brass side adjustment knobs, age-related foxing on the glass silvering, and hand-finished timber backboards.

Place the mirror atop a modern sideboard, chest of drawers, or vanity unit to create an interesting contrast between historical timber craft and clean, contemporary architectural lines.

Dust the polished frame regularly using a dry microfibre cloth and apply a natural beeswax polish periodically, ensuring glass cleaning products are applied directly to a cloth rather than sprayed near the timber finish.
