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.

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

A cheval mirror is a full-length dressing mirror suspended in a vertical wooden frame resting on a four-legged base. Developed in the late eighteenth century, the design became a staple in dressing rooms throughout the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries.

Traditional walnut cheval mirrors feature solid or veneered walnut timber frame uprights around plate glass. Construction typically relies on mortise and tenon joints at the base and brass pivot mechanisms on either side to allow smooth tilting.

Authentic period examples often feature solid wood backings, original brass friction screws or pivots, natural ageing on the mirror silvering, and fine joinery on the splayed feet.

A walnut cheval mirror can be placed in a dressing room, bedroom corner, or wide hallway to reflect light and add warm wood accents. Combining historic timber pieces with contemporary light fabrics creates a balanced aesthetic.

Maintain the walnut frame by dusting with a lint-free cloth and periodically applying a high-quality beeswax. Clean the glass by applying cleaner directly to a microfibre cloth to prevent liquid from seeping into the wooden frame edge.
