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

Produced during the reign of King George III (17601820), these mirrors typically feature carved timber frames finished with water gilding, incorporating Neoclassical or Rococo design motifs such as foliage scrolls, urns, and beaded borders.

Frames were sculpted from timber such as pine or lime wood, coated with gesso and gold leaf using a water-gilding technique, and fitted with hand-blown glass plates with silver or mercury backing.

Authentic pieces feature hand-carved joinery details on the reverse frame, natural wear on the gold leaf revealing red bole or grey gesso underneath, and historic plate distortion or foxing on the glass.

Positioning the mirror above a modern console table or fireplace mantelpiece reflects light across the room and creates a structural focal point that connects contemporary spaces with classic architecture.

Dust the carved frame gently using a dry feather duster or soft camel-hair brush, avoiding water or chemical cleaning agents which can dissolve water-gilded gesso coatings.
