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

Chinoiserie emerged in 17th and 18th-century Europe as decorative artists interpreted East Asian artistic traditions, motif styles, and lacquer techniques on western forms such as wall mirrors and cabinets.

These mirrors typically feature carved timber frames finished with water gilding, hand-painted gesso or lacquer layers, and mercury-silvered glass plates.

Authentic period mirrors exhibit natural foxing or dark speckling on the mirror plate, hand-carved joinery on the wooden backboards, and authentic surface wear on the gilding where underlying bole or wood shows through.

Positioning a gilded mirror above a clean-lined modern console or mantelpiece creates visual contrast, combining historical texture with contemporary minimalist lines.

Dust the frame regularly with a dry feather duster or soft dry brush, avoiding liquids, damp cloths, or chemical cleaners that can lift gold leaf or damage painted lacquer layers.
