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.
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.

Georgian Revival fretwork mirrors reproduce 18th-century Chippendale-style designs, featuring hand-cut carved scrollwork frames made from mahogany or walnut. They typically incorporate a central gilt motif, such as a bird or shell, at the upper crest and a rectangular glass plate.

These mirrors were primarily constructed using solid mahogany or mahogany veneers applied over a softwood core. The decorative accents feature gilded gesso or gold-leafed wood, framing a central bevelled or flat glass mirror plate.

Authentic period examples demonstrate original timber backings, hand-sawn frame joinery, and natural wear to the gilded accents. The silvering on original bevelled mirror glass often shows mild age-related speckling or oxidisation.

Mount the mirror above a hallway console table or a dining room sideboard to create visual balance and reflect natural light. The dark wood tone contrasts effectively against modern neutral paint schemes or textured wallpaper.

Dust the detailed fretwork and gilded areas gently using a soft, dry camel-hair brush to avoid snagging delicate scrollwork. Clean the glass plate with a microfibre cloth lightly dampened with water or specialized glass cleaner, ensuring liquid does not seep under the timber frame edges.
