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

Designed during the nineteenth century, Victorian overmantel mirrors were crafted specifically to sit directly above fireplace mantels, featuring flat bases and arched or decorated frames to reflect natural light across living spaces.

These mirrors were typically constructed from pine or carved hardwood cores coated in gesso, then overlaid with gold leaf or bronze leaf over silvered plate glass.

Authentic period pieces feature original wooden backboards, natural silver oxidation or foxing on the glass, and subtle cracking known as craquelure on the gilded gesso surface.

Position the mirror centrally above a living room fireplace, dining sideboard, or hallway console table to anchor the room while contrasting classic gilded details against contemporary paint colours.

Dust the frame gently using a soft, dry feather duster or clean camel-hair brush, avoiding water or liquid chemical cleaners which can permanently dissolve the delicate gesso and gilding.
