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

A 19th-century gilt mirror typically features a wooden frame coated in gesso and finished with applied gold leaf or gold paint. These pieces frequently incorporate classical decorative accents such as beaded moulding, egg-and-dart borders, or decorative crestings popular during the Georgian, Regency, and Victorian periods.

Traditional construction involved a carved wooden base frame covered with coats of gesso and clay bole. Thin sheets of gold leaf were then applied using water or oil gilding techniques before housing a silvered or mercury glass mirror plate.

Authentic period pieces show signs of natural age, including fine surface cracking in the gesso known as craquelure, areas where the underlying reddish clay bole shows through worn gilding, and light oxidation or dark foxing spots on the mirror plate.

Positioning an oval gilt mirror above a clean-lined console table or fireplace mantel creates an effective juxtaposition between historical ornamentation and contemporary architecture. The oval silhouette softens straight architectural lines while reflecting light across the room.

Dust the frame regularly using a soft, dry camel-hair brush, avoiding liquid cleaners or harsh chemicals that can strip delicate gold leaf. Apply glass cleaner directly to a microfibre cloth rather than spraying the mirror surface to protect the frame edge from moisture damage.
