Strictly Vetted Dealers

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.

Secure Transit

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.

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

French Louis XVI style giltwood mirrors typically feature rectangular frames adorned with Neoclassical motifs such as laurel leaves, beaded borders, floral garlands, and central cresting cartouches.

These mirrors were crafted with timber frames covered in carved gesso moulding, coated with red bole clay, and gilded using thin sheets of leaf gold over silvered glass backings.

Authentic pieces display natural age-related oxidisation on the mirror glass, micro-cracking in the gesso known as craquelure, and reddish underlying bole clay visible through areas of worn gilding.

Position a large gilt mirror above a fireplace mantelpiece or lean it against a focal wall to reflect natural light and create visual depth while contrasting against contemporary decor.

Dust the frame gently using a soft, dry feather duster or microfibre cloth, ensuring no liquid cleaners, water, or chemical polishes are applied as these dissolve historical gilding.
