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

Normandy mirrors, known as miroirs de Normandie, originated in northern France during the 18th century and feature hand-carved floral crestings, beaded borders, and regional motifs such as baskets of flowers.

These mirrors were crafted from hand-carved wood coated with gesso, finished with water gilding using genuine gold leaf, and often featured painted accents alongside mercury glass mirror plates.

Authentic period pieces feature hand-carved timber backings, natural distressing or foxing on the glass plate, and areas of wear where the underlying clay bole layer shows beneath the gilding.

Positioning a giltwood mirror above a contemporary console table or on a dark feature wall creates contrast between traditional carving and modern architectural lines.

Dust the carved frame gently using a dry feather duster or soft camel-hair brush, avoiding water, damp cloths, and chemical cleaners that damage historic gilding and gesso.
