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.

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.

Edwardian Arts and Crafts mirrors frequently combine architectural silhouettes with decorative marquetry or stylised floral inlays. Produced during the early 20th century, these pieces emphasize hand craftsmanship, uniting naturalistic design elements with structured timber frames.

These mirrors were typically constructed from rich hardwoods such as mahogany or walnut, featuring intricate marquetry panels made from contrasting fruitwoods, boxwood, or mother-of-pearl. The reflective surface generally consists of thick silvered mirror glass.

Authentic pieces frequently feature distinct architectural cornices, stylised plant or seedpod marquetry, and high-quality cabinetmaking techniques. Many items retain stamped lock plates marked with company initials or feature printed paper labels on the timber backboards.

Positioning an inlaid mahogany mirror above a fireplace mantel or modern sideboard creates an immediate focal point. The warm wood tones and graphic floral marquetry bridge traditional craftsmanship with contemporary, minimalist spaces.

Dust the timber frame regularly with a dry microfibre cloth and apply a clear beeswax polish occasionally to preserve the wood finish. Avoid spraying glass cleaner directly onto the frame, as moisture can seep behind the timber and damage the marquetry or glass silvering.
