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.

Designed to sit directly above a fireplace, a 19th-century English overmantel mirror typically features a flat base with an arched upper frame, embellished with carved crestings and gilded finishes.

Frames from this period were typically constructed from pine or lime wood, coated with gesso moulding, and finished with gold leaf gilding applied over clay bole.

Authentic pieces display subtle wear to the gold leaf revealing the underlying clay bole, natural distress or oxidation on the mirror plate, and hand-carved construction on the rear timber backing.

Place the mirror directly above a fireplace or a large console table to anchor the space, allowing the metallic finish to contrast against modern wall colours while reflecting light.

Dust the frame gently using a soft, dry camel-hair brush, avoiding liquid cleaners or water which can dissolve the gesso substrate and damage the gold leaf.
