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.

Florentine mirrors originate from Florence, Italy, and are distinguished by intricate, hand-carved wooden frames featuring foliage, acanthus leaves, and scrollwork finished with gold leaf gilding.

These mirrors were constructed using hand-carved softwoods or hardwoods, covered with gesso and a clay bole layer before applying gold leaf using water-gilding techniques.

Authentic period pieces show hand-carving marks on the reverse, natural craquelure in the gesso, slight wear revealing red or grey bole beneath the gold leaf, and hand-cut glass plates.

Position the mirror above a modern sideboard or fireplace mantelpiece to create visual contrast between classical carved detailing and clean-lined modern architecture.

Dust the carved frame gently using a soft, dry bristle brush, avoiding water, chemical cleaners, or damp cloths which can dissolve the water-soluble gesso and lift the gold leaf.
