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.

A Victorian overmantel mirror is a decorative wall or mantelpiece mirror produced during the reign of Queen Victoria, specifically proportioned to sit directly above a fireplace hearth.

These mirrors were constructed using a wooden core frame coated with gesso, detailed with moulded ornamentation, and finished with applied gold leaf over a reflective glass plate.

Authentic period examples feature wooden backboards with period fixings, silvered glass displaying light spotting or foxing, and fine craquelure across the gesso surface.

Position the mirror directly above a fireplace mantelpiece or atop a wide console table to reflect natural light and establish a central focal point in contemporary living spaces.

Dust the frame gently with a soft dry brush without liquid solvents, and clean the glass plate using a microfibre cloth lightly dampened with water to prevent moisture entering the gilding.
