We verify their professional trade history, ethical standards, and photographic quality to ensure a secure, high-standard buying environment.

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.

Louis XVI style mirrors feature neoclassically inspired ornamentation including ribbon bow crestings, floral garlands, guilloche mouldings, and oval or rectangular frames with refined symmetry.

These mirrors were crafted with carved timber frames coated in gessoa smooth mixture of chalk and binderwhich was then layered with gold leaf or metal leaf gilding over a reflective glass plate.

Authentic pieces display subtle wear to the gold leaf revealing red or yellow clay bole underneath, minor cracking or craquelure in the gesso, and historic wood joinery or plaster backing.

Position the mirror above a contemporary sideboard or fireplace mantelpiece to create a striking focal point that contrasts ornate detail against clean architectural lines.

Dust gently with a soft, dry feather duster or dry watercolour brush, avoiding water, chemical solvents, or damp cloths which can dissolve water-soluble gesso and lift the gilding.
