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.

A Victorian overmantel mirror is a wide horizontal mirror designed to sit directly above a fireplace mantelpiece. Typically constructed with polished hardwood or giltwood frames, these pieces often feature multi-plate glass panels to maximize light reflection across reception rooms.

19th-century mirrors were constructed using solid mahogany or mahogany veneers over pine or oak frames. Decorative accents often utilised composition mouldings finished with gold leaf gilding, set alongside silvered glass plates.

Authentic period mirrors feature mercury or early silvering on the glass, which may display slight oxidisation or foxing over time. Examination of the rear reveals solid wood backing boards, hand-cut joinery, and natural wear along the gilded borders.

Positioning a Victorian mirror above a contemporary sideboard or minimalist fireplace creates a focal contrast. The warm timber tone and gold detailing complement neutral paint palettes and structured architectural lines.

Timber surfaces should be dusted with a soft, dry microfibre cloth and treated occasionally with natural beeswax. Avoid applying liquid cleaners directly to gilded mouldings or mirror edges to prevent deterioration of the foil and gold leaf.
