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.
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.
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.

Victorian gilt frames are defined by their substantial profiles, detailed relief ornament, and gold leaf finishing over a timber and gesso core. They frequently feature deep cavetto mouldings and elaborate corner embellishments designed to complement oil paintings and high-status prints of the nineteenth century.

These frames were typically constructed using pine or lime wood substrate coated in layers of gesso and compo (composition material). The decorative relief details were moulded from compo, attached to the timber frame, and finished with oil or water gilding using real gold leaf.

Authentic nineteenth-century gilt frames display fine age-related cracks (craquelure) in the gesso layer beneath the gilding, alongside subtle wear where the reddish or grey clay bole base shows through the gold leaf. The reverse usually reveals dark, aged pine timber with lap or mitre joints rather than modern staples or synthetic backing.

A heavy Victorian gilt frame serves as a striking contrast piece when placed in minimalist or transitional modern interiors. Hanging such a frame above a modern sideboard or against a bold, dark painted wall accentuates its architectural moulding and historical profile.

Clean gilded frames using only a soft, dry camel-hair brush or feather duster to remove surface dust. Avoid liquid cleaners, water, or commercial polishes, as moisture can dissolve the water-soluble gesso base and permanently damage the delicate gold leaf layer.
