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

French wall mirrors from the 18th century and later revival periods frequently incorporate elaborate carved motifs such as shell crests, acanthus foliage, and sweeping scrollwork, typically finished in leaf gilding over a shaped wooden frame.

Traditional giltwood mirrors feature carved timber or molded gesso over a softwood substrate, coated with a clay bole base and finished with hand-applied gold leaf using water or oil gilding techniques.

Authentic period frames display subtle wear to the gold leaf revealing the underlying reddish clay bole, hand-carved rear joinery, age-related tarnish or light oxidisation, and period-appropriate backing panels.

A gilded mirror serves as a focal point when mounted above a fireplace mantel, positioned above a hallway console table, or placed in an entryway to reflect natural light and create contrast against contemporary wall colours.

Gilded frames require gentle dusting with a soft, dry camel-hair brush or microfibre cloth, avoiding liquid cleaners, water, or commercial polishes which can dissolve the delicate gesso and gold leaf layer.
