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.

Louis XV Rococo mirrors are defined by elaborate natural motifs, fluid curves, acanthus leaf scrolls, and ornate top crestings. They frequently feature gilded frames made from bronze or carved wood, alongside segmented glass borders and delicate surface etching.

Late 19th-century French mirrors commonly feature frames crafted from cast bronze or brass, which were gilded using mercury gilder processes or gold leaf coatings. The mirror plates were made from silvered glass, often accented with hand-etched floral designs.

Authentic period pieces show signs of age such as natural oxidation on the gilt finish, dark spots or desilvering on the glass, and hand-chased construction details on the metalwork. The reverse typically displays historical mounting hardware and aged wood backing.

A French Rococo gilt mirror provides visual contrast when hung above a minimalist mantelpiece, a contemporary sideboard, or in a formal entryway. Its reflective surface and warm metallic tones complement both period decor and clean-lined modern architectural schemes.

Dust the gilt metal frame gently with a soft, dry lint-free cloth or soft brush without applying chemical cleaners, which can strip gilding. Clean the glass carefully with a damp cloth, ensuring liquid does not seep behind the frame or etchings.
