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

Overmantel mirrors were designed specifically to sit above a fireplace hearth, featuring proportioned flat bases and elaborate upper crests inspired by Rococo and Neo-Classical styles popular during the Victorian era.

These mirrors were typically crafted from wooden frames built up with molded plaster or gesso detail, which was then finished with hand-applied gold leaf gilding and off-white paint.

Authentic period pieces often exhibit signs of natural aging such as foxing or subtle desilvered spots on the mirror glass, along with cracking (craquelure) in the plaster or gesso layers beneath the gilding.

Position the mirror above a living room fireplace or a substantial console table to serve as a dramatic focal point, balancing its intricate detail against clean, contemporary wall colours.

Dust the frame gently using a soft, dry feather duster or camel-hair brush, avoiding wet cloths, water, or chemical cleaners which can dissolve the water-gilded gold leaf and delicate gesso layer.
