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 Georgian toilet mirror, historically referred to as a toilet glass or dressing glass, is a freestanding tabletop mirror developed in the 18th century designed to sit atop a dressing table or chest of drawers.

These pieces were predominantly crafted from dense hardwoods such as mahogany or walnut, featuring hand-cut dovetail drawer joints, brass friction pivots, and mercury-silvered glass.

Authentic George II examples typically feature hand-sawn pine or oak secondary timber inside base drawers, original brass turn-screws on upright supports, and age-related silvering distress on the mirror plate.

A George II toilet mirror can be placed on a bedroom chest of drawers, a hallway console table, or a dining room sideboard to add historical contrast and reflective depth.

Clean the mahogany timber using a dry microfibre cloth and apply a natural beeswax polish annually, avoiding direct contact between liquid cleaners and the mirror glass.
