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 1830s, William IV design represents a bridge between British Regency elegance and early Victorian substantiality. Cheval mirrors from this era feature robust, carved scroll supports, rich mahogany construction, and turned horizontal stretchers.

These mirrors are primarily crafted using solid and veneered mahogany timber, with hand-turned stretchers and carved scroll uprights. The glass plate was historically silvered, and the mirror frame rotates on brass pivot fittings set on castors.

Authentic period examples demonstrate hand-carved scroll detailing, original brass or iron castors, and mortise-and-tenon frame joinery. The timber exhibits deep patination, and the mirror backboard often consists of secondary timber secured with historical nails.

Position the mirror in a dressing room, bedroom, or spacious hallway near a natural light source to enhance space and illumination. Pairing dark mahogany with neutral wall tones or heritage paint palettes creates a balanced, architectural focal point.

Dust the timber frame regularly with a dry microfibre cloth and apply a natural beeswax polish occasionally, working along the grain. Clean the mirror glass using a cloth lightly dampened with water or specialized glass cleaner, avoiding contact with the wooden frame.
