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.

Venetian mirrors originate from the glassmaking traditions of Murano and Venice, recognised by their intricate etched glass borders, hand-cut glass rosettes, scrollwork cresting, and bevelled mirror plates.

These mirrors feature layered glass elements mounted onto a shaped wooden backing board, held together with decorative brass screws concealed by small glass leaves or rosettes.

Authentic pieces display hand-etched reverse detailing on the border panels, bevelled edges, layered glass joins, and natural silvering age marks or foxing on the mirror plate.

A Venetian mirror serves as a focal point when hung above a mantelpiece, sideboard, or console table, contrasting effectively against contemporary paint tones and dark panelling.

Clean the glass surface gently using a lint-free cloth lightly dampened with water or specialised glass cleaner, avoiding liquid seepage into the seams, metal fixings, or wooden backing.
