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.

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.
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.

A Dutch marquetry dressing table mirror, historically referred to as a toilet glass, features floral or foliate wood inlays set into mahogany or walnut framing. Originating in Holland during the late seventeenth and eighteenth centuries, these pieces combine decorative wood inlay techniques with functional tabletop mirrors designed for grooming.

These mirrors are typically constructed from dense timber bases, such as mahogany, oak, or walnut, and adorned with delicate veneers of contrasting fruitwoods, boxwood, or satinwood. The central mirror glass is supported by an upright frame held between pivoted standards, often mounted on a box base containing drawers.

Authentic pieces feature hand-cut wood inlays showing slight variations in line work and grain direction, rather than printed or modern laser-cut patterns. The presence of hand-dovetailed drawer joints, natural timber oxidisation on unfinished rear surfaces, and original brass fittings further indicate historical period construction.

Position the mirror atop a neutral modern sideboard, chest of drawers, or dressing console to create a focused functional display area. The complex floral inlay introduces warm tones and historical contrast against minimal, contemporary backdrops.

Dust the wooden surfaces regularly with a soft, dry lint-free cloth and apply high-grade beeswax polish sparingly along the grain to maintain moisture in the veneers. Avoid placing the item near direct heat sources or high humidity, which can lift delicate wood inlays, and apply glass cleaner strictly to a microfibre cloth rather than spraying the mirror directly.
