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

Originating in Renaissance and Baroque Italy, Florentine mirrors are characterised by deeply hand-carved wood frames featuring scrollwork, foliage, and figurative motifs finished in gold leaf gilding.

Traditional Florentine mirrors feature structural frames hand-carved from softwoods like pine or lime, coated with gesso, and layered with thin sheets of gold leaf before housing mirror glass.

Authentic pieces show hand-carving marks on the frame backing, natural wear or oxidisation to the gold leaf revealing red bole underneath, and historical joinery rather than modern composite mouldings.

Placing a carved gilded mirror above a fireplace or entry console creates a focal point that contrasts intricate historical craftsmanship against clean architectural lines.

Dust gently with a soft, dry brush or microfibre cloth, avoiding water and liquid solvents that can dissolve gesso layers or strip delicate gold leaf.
