Dealers Notes

I can arrange delivery to you, whether you are within the UK or require an international delivery service, please do get in touch…as a mainland UK guide, a delivery for something around the size of a chest of drawers within approx 150 miles will be £75 to you, but if you if you are in Scotland, Wales, Ireland or Cornwall please get in touch to confirm delivery costs!

Based in Uppingham, Rutland…having been in the business for 25 years focusing on mostly French and English decorative antiques and interiors from the 18th to the early 20th century, hopefully a collection you will enjoy browsing and hopefully re home some of my finds!

Viewing here in Uppingham is very welcome in my spacious barn studio but also I have a showroom based within the Uppingham Antiques Centre, which is well worth a visit and have a good lunch in town too!

Any queries about anything you have seen or about delivery, don't hesitate to get in touch.

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.

Originating in the late eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries, convex mirrors were placed in dining rooms to allow household staff to observe the room without facing occupants directly.

Traditional examples feature carved wood frames with water gilding or painted finishes, enclosing curved convex mirror glass accented with decorative spherules and reeded inner slips.

Authentic period pieces typically exhibit hand-carved timber profiles, original gilding showing subtle wear or red bole undertones, natural glass distortion, and traditional wooden backing boards.

A convex mirror functions as a focal point above a mantelpiece, in a hall corridor, or positioned opposite a window to reflect light across the room.

Dust the timber frame using a dry microfibre cloth without liquid cleaners, and clean the glass using a mild glass cleaner applied to a cloth rather than directly to the mirror.
