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.

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

Late 18th-century giltwood mirrors often feature hand-carved timber frames adorned with Rococo or Neoclassical motifs such as C-scrolls, acanthus leaves, and floral crestings, finished with leaf gilding over a gesso base.

Frames were typically carved from softwoods such as pine or lime wood, coated with layers of chalky gesso and red or yellow bole, and finished with thin sheets of gold leaf applied via water gilding.

Authentic period pieces exhibit hand-carved joinery on the wooden reverse, natural wear showing the underlying red or dark bole beneath the gold leaf, and slight foxing or oxidisation on the original mirror glass plate.

An ornate gilt mirror is frequently placed above a minimalist mantelpiece, side table, or hallway console to serve as a focal point, introducing texture and reflecting light to balance modern architectural lines.

Dust the frame gently using a soft, dry camel-hair brush or feather duster, avoiding water, chemical polishes, or liquid glass cleaners which can dissolve gesso and detach delicate gold leaf.
