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

Developed in the late 18th century by architect Robert Adam, this Neoclassical style features symmetrical proportions inspired by classical antiquity, incorporating delicate motifs such as urns, rams heads, bellflower swags, and slim oval frames.

Mirrors from this era were primarily carved from softwoods like pine or lime, layered with gesso, and either gilded with leaf or finished in light paint tones, housing hand-blown glass plates.

Authentic pieces exhibit refined, slender carving details, original wire or iron armature support for delicate cresting elements, hand-carved joinery on the reverse, and minor surface oxidation consistent with historical glass production.

Position the mirror above a contemporary sideboard, fireplace mantel, or console table to create an elegant focal point that balances clean modern lines with historic architectural detail.

Dust delicate carvings gently with a soft, dry camel-hair brush, avoid liquid cleaners on painted or gilded areas, and clean the glass using a lightly dampened microfibre cloth without touching the surrounding frame.
