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

A triple plate overmantel mirror features a horizontal frame divided into three distinct mirror glass sections, historically designed to sit directly above a hearth or mantelpiece in 19th-century interiors.

These frames were typically crafted from timber substrates layered with molded composition ornaments, then finished with water or oil gilding using thin leaves of real gold over a clay bole base.

Authentic Victorian examples feature original silvered or mercury glass showing subtle oxidisation, wooden panelled backboards secured with old nails, and genuine gold leaf gilding displaying red or yellow clay underneath worn surface areas.

Position the mirror centrally above a chimney breast, console table, or dining room sideboard to bounce natural light and establish architectural symmetry within a modern room layout.

Dust the gilded relief ornament using a dry, soft camel-hair brush, avoiding water or liquid chemicals which can dissolve traditional water-gilding and soften composition details.
