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.

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

During the late Qing dynasty, Chinese artisans crafted lacquerware wall mirrors featuring carved architectural tops shaped like pagodas, side supports depicting dragons, and traditional calligraphic script.

These mirrors were constructed using a carved wooden core finished with multiple coats of red cinnabar or organic lacquer, often featuring gilt lettering and clear mirror glass.

Authentic pieces feature signs of age such as micro-cracking in the lacquer surface, hand-carved joinery on the reverse, original gilding wear, and mortise-and-tenon construction.

Position the mirror above a contemporary sideboard or console table to establish a dramatic focal point that contrasts dark woodwork against neutral walls.

Dust the detailed carving with a dry, soft-bristled brush, keep the frame away from direct sunlight and heat sources, and avoid liquid cleansers that can damage aged lacquer coatings.
