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.

Rococo Revival mirrors from the nineteenth century feature elaborate carved scrollwork, pierced borders, acanthus foliage, and asymmetry inspired by eighteenth-century French designs. Frames were heavily ornamented to reflect light and create dramatic focal points within domestic interiors.

These frames were typically constructed from softwood or hardwood carved with detailed relief work, often layered with gesso plaster. Fine gold leaf was subsequently water-gilded or oil-gilded over the surface, framing hand-poured silvered plate glass.

Authentic period pieces exhibit natural wear to the gilding where the underlying reddish clay bole or white gesso shows through. The reverse usually features hand-sawn wooden backing boards, and the glass may display slight silvering degradation or oxidation consistent with age.

Positioning a detailed gilt mirror above a clean-lined fireplace mantelpiece or modern sideboard creates an appealing juxtaposition between historic craftsmanship and minimalist modern decor, while maximizing natural light.

Dust the frame gently using a soft, dry camel-hair brush or feather duster, avoiding water or chemical sprays that can dissolve gesso or lift delicate gold leaf. Glass cleaner should be applied sparingly to a cloth rather than sprayed directly onto the glass.
