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.

Typically defined by Neoclassical symmetry and architectural proportions, these mirrors feature carved motifs such as ribbons, floral garlands, foliage, and classical crestings above a gilded frame.

Frames were hand-carved from solid wood, coated with layers of gesso, and meticulously finished using water gilding with gold leaf before inserting hand-blown plate glass.

Authentic period pieces often exhibit red or grey clay bole showing beneath worn gold leaf, original hand-carved backboards, and mercury glass displaying subtle surface foxing or darkening.

Position the mirror above a contemporary console table or fireplace mantelpiece to create a focal point that balances historic carved detail with modern minimalism.

Dust gently with a dry microfibre cloth or soft feather duster, avoiding water, liquid polishes, or chemical cleaners that can dissolve historic gesso and gold leaf.
