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

Overmantel mirrors from the Victorian era were crafted to sit directly above a chimneypiece, featuring structured architectural frames with decorative mouldings, gilding, or ebonised wood to reflect artificial and natural light throughout the room.

These frames were typically constructed from solid timbers such as pine or oak, treated with a dark black stain or lacquer to imitate ebony, and detailed with plaster appliques finished in gold leaf alongside bevelled plate glass.

Authentic period examples feature original wooden backboards secured with square nails or slotted screws, genuine patination or light wear on the gilded highlights, and age-consistent foxing on the silvered glass plate.

Positioning an ebonised overmantel mirror above a contemporary fireplace hearth or a minimalist hallway console table creates an anchor point that contrasts dark linear framing against modern neutral walls.

Dust the frame regularly using a dry, soft microfibre cloth or feather duster, ensuring no liquid chemicals or solvent polishes come into contact with the delicate water gilding or lacquered ebonised surface.
