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 the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, travelling shaving mirrors were compact, portable dressing accessories designed for gentlemen on the move, frequently folding flat into a protective wooden case or frame.

These mirrors were typically constructed from solid dense hardwoods like mahogany, walnut, or rosewood, incorporating mercury-silvered glass and small brass hinges or easel support mechanisms.

Authentic nineteenth-century pieces display signs of age such as original silvering degradation or foxing on the glass, hand-cut joinery, oxidised brass fittings, and natural wood patination.

Place the mirror on a bedroom chest of drawers, a dressing table, or an open bookshelf alongside leather-bound books and brass decorative objects to add depth and historical texture.

Clean the woodwork using a soft lint-free cloth and apply high-quality beeswax sparingly, ensuring moisture is kept away from the silvered glass back to prevent further silver deterioration.
